There is still teratoma mass in my abdomen which is going to be removed with RPLND in about a week at the Nashville VA hospital. Im only 32 and hoping to have the same success as you had after surgery. I was originally diagnosed with stage III T.C. back in August 2011. The tumor was a mixed germ cell tumor, had characteristics of seminola and non seminola. I went through 4 rounds of BEP, but mass remained and grew back quickly after that, so doctor said that I needed the high dose chemo. Right now I'm doing well, just anxious to get surgery over with and return to normal activiies. Honestly, I just feel blessed to still be here though, had many days and nights wondering if treatment is going to wark or not.Jason Gillnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1385981079615852861.post-22519994159548343072012-04-22T22:54:30.843-05:002012-04-22T22:54:30.843-05:00Just wonderful Michael!
