I had two CT scans done today-- abdomen and chest with contrast.

I just got the results back: no sign of malignancy within the areas scanned.

It still doesn't explain the gigantic nut I'm schlepping around, but at least I'm not riddled with Cancer.

Sometimes ya feel like a nut, sometimes ya don't.

My Dad's left one grew to the size of a zucchini, but I can't recall if it was cancerous or not. If I can remember back some 65 years, his Doc drained it or something, but I don't think it was removed.

Then that’s a hydrocele

Not a cancer
Glad to hear it. Prayers continued.
Welcome good news. Great news would be the biopsies come up negative.

Good luck and best wishes. I even shook a couple rattles for you. I hope it helps.

Ya get to a certain age, and no matter how long ago your give a chit quit working, things get creepy.

That mole, or indigestion with chest pains. Should I ignore it? Your left arm is hurting, & you finally remember how you over stressed it. It's not a heart attack.

Then your nuts hurt, WTF?

I try not to be a hypochondriac, but don't want to be bull headed & ignore the warning signs as well.

Interesting times.

I’ve spoken extensively about my large nuts, and one is in fact a hydro.

Hangs out on my dove stool. lol

Peek a boo, baby bird fell outta the nest

Spermatocele

Almost like having 3.

Yes, I did. It hit in mid-January. It caused havoc in the whole house.
Thanks for remembering.

My dad complains about his getting wet when he takes a dump. And he can still get up pretty dang fast when he sits on them.
you don't vote donkey...
maybe its elephantitus....

or maybe it got mad at the other one and is holding its breath...
its a bit juvinile, I know
but what do you expect from a nut?
Posted By: Dillonbuck Re: It May be Just the Nut - 08/21/21
If it keeps growing, he might really be half nuts.

Any way I can get the middle one to grow to the size of a zucchini???

Not sure what I'd do with it though.

Take it out and admire it occasionally, I suppose.

I had never heard of a Hydrocele. Mayo Clinic says

Risk factors for developing a hydrocele later in life include:
Injury or inflammation to the scrotum
Infection, including a sexually transmitted infection (STI)


When I played paintball there was a guy that got his testicle shattered with a point blank paintball at 295 ft/sec. Ouch!!!

My best friend got fluid on his left nut.....swelled up bigger than a baseball, before it was drained. Crazy bastard would go the bar, and tell people about his huge nut. "Buy me a beer, and I'll show it to you". After the doctor visit, he had to go back to buying his own beer!
