EGC - What is it?

I had a rare (emphasis on rare) form of Testicular Cancer, called Extra-Gonadal Germ Cell Cancer or EGC for short. Very few people know what it is, so I just refer to myself as a TC Survivor even though I never actually had cancer in a testicle.

For more information on what EGC is and how dangerous it is, the TCRC has a great site http://tcrc.acor.org/egc.html

Some personal stories of EGC survivors: http://tcrc.acor.org/stories_egc.html

Yeah we're a rare breed. I tell Amy all the time that I should win the lottery or something if I can get a form of cancer that rare.
