Well long term anyway! It actually isn't classed as a cancer, a tumour yes, they checked me over the day that I was 1st admitted into hospital for testicular cancer and they x-rayed my chest too for secondaries, luckily nothing was extra found.
Ahh! You're the "first guy who graduated coventry" person! And already cancer? shoot, what a prospect for aspiring students like me ! what do you do for a living now? Btw, if you are still in Britain then you're lucky. Have that cancer here in the US, that means a year salary (if any). Unless you have Medicare. But since you're from Britain I guess you won't. ps: your story is great. I know ppl who beat cancer too...namely lance armstrong... But yeah, bon chance!
AMH, I think you have the wrong end of the stick! I was the 1st person to graduate from cov with that specific degree, "Vehicle Design with professional enhancement" I am only 26, I'm not old and I'm not that young either.
The worst thing about it is I feel fine but I can't enjoy a nice cold beer at the end of the day because of my steroids.
In simple terms, I believe, cancer can be life threatening and the cancer can grow very quickly. Cancer cells don't die they build up. Tumour cells are larger than cancer 1s and are fairly simple structures but are fairly inert, don't quote me on this, I am an unemployed designer not a MBChB or MD (doctor).

I just remembered that 5 yrs ago my grandma had a brain tumour herself. Got rid of it w/ prayer I called it "superstition+doctors" but she called it "miracle+doctors". Im 26 myself and now just about to go attend a school... Sorry for my preconceived notion that you are nearer to the mid-life-crises-end of the day...I know you'll be alright. But my condolences anyway for not being able to quench your buds in fine and foamy malt beverages in the meantime.
I wonder if that works both ways. There are people I pray to get brain cancers. The Horrors for instance. I like that Chris Cunningham video with the girl from Minority Report flashing her tenticle snatch as much as mthe next guy, but ferchissakes, Im in Quito in South A-bleedin-merica and there are still a few of these spooky, spray-on-jeans, former stay at home dorks wondering around glaring sullenly at me as if daring me to beat the **** out of them. Still, on the bright side, Im due in New York on Thursday, and hipsters are like hens teeth in that town arnt they.
Reduced my steroid intake and not been using pain killers for the past 4 days now, still have swelling of my head though, it only hurts when I try to eat something like a potato or something with a desert spoon, its just opening my mouth wide.
