I was diagnosed in the fall of 2019 at age 33 and treated at MD Anderson in Houston, Texas by Dr. Matthew Campbell. After experiencing sharp pain in my lower back, I visited my primary care doctor, where an ultrasound revealed a softball-sized tumor wrapped around my lower aorta. I had no pain or swelling in my testicle—the cancer had already burned out there and spread to my lymphatic system.
