When does this end
- I had testicular cancer almost two years ago. Ive had radiation therapy last year in november which would of been the year mark. I was going every 3 to 4 months for blood work and cat scans and the whole nine yards. Ive been feeling fatigue and i get nausous and feel real sick every now and then. When i had the previous cancer i had a late stage 2 and a tumor that was a half inch big. I dont know whether or not to go to the doctor just yet. What should i do.

All the classic symptoms!
- I had a lot of classic symptoms but had a delay in diagnosis. I had vaginal bleeding, cramping, back pain and it took me almost six months to get diagnosed with ovarian cancer. First, I was told I had fibroid tumors, then endometiosis. It wasn't until an emergency room visit did I find a doctor who thought it could be cancer.
