Support through testicular cancer with the Electrical Industries Charity
November is men’s month, and the Electrical Industries Charityis highlighting how important it is to be in the know about testicular cancer. Testicular cancer is mostly diagnosed in young men and men who have undescended testes at birth or have a family history of testicular cancer are most at risk.
J
ames, a power station worker, was diagnosed with testicular cancer aged 27. James contacted the charity aſter being diagnosed with stage 1 testicular cancer. James had managed
to catch his cancer early and was advised his cancer had not spread – a positive sign but the first treatment option was to remove his right testicle. Understandably, James was distraught at the prospect of surgery and was
struggling to cope with the impact surgery may have.. James and his fiancée had always wanted a family and he feared he would be left infertile and their relationship irrevocably damaged. The Electrical Industries Charity encouraged James to speak to his doctor
to understand the likelihood of infertility and impotence. James had done his own research but found himself overwhelmed whenever he read about testicular cancer. The Charity welfare team understood James’ fear but told him knowledge is power. James was also anxious to speak to his fiancée, he feared rejection should
he be infertile and felt his place as the protector and solid support structure would be destroyed. The charity team also funded counselling sessions to give James a safe non-judgemental outlet while he was struggling to speak

to his partner and his family. Through counselling James worked through his grief and anxiety and after two sessions he opened up to his fiancée, who reassured him they were a team, and they will remain a team to find the best support possible. James’ doctor advised that by removing James’ right testicle his chances
at making a full recovery are greatly improved and his sex life and fertility should not be affected. About 1 in 50 will get new testicular cancer in their remaining testicle but in such circumstances, there is the opportunity to only remove part of the testicle. With James’ fears eased and his fiancée’s support, James underwent surgery and a single dose of chemotherapy to eradicate the cancer. James and his fiancée married in the Summer and are now thinking
about adding to their family. The Charity continues to check in on James and should he need further support the Charity would be more than happy to help.
The Electrical Industries Charity are here to help you through any stage of your diagnosis. Please contact the welfare team on
