Online Support Groups

• TC-NET & TC-SUPPORTERS - An in-depth description of the TCRC's very own email support group.


• TC-NET archives - The TCRC's support group for patients and people caring for testicular cancer patients and survivors. This list is more medically oriented than the supporters list. This is a web interface to the list and the archives. The archives contain every message ever posted to TC-NET.


• TC-SUPPORTERS archives - The TCRC's support group for people caring for testicular cancer patients and survivors. The support group for people providing support! This is a web interface to the list and the archives. The archives contain every message ever posted TC-SUPPORTERS.


• TC-Cancer.com Support Forum - tc-cancer.com hosts a number of special sub-forums for those concerned they may have TC, those already in treatment, survivors, partners. Also a sub-forum for younger guys concerned about symptoms and worried about how to talk to their parents. More active and reliable than AOL's forums.


• Testicular Cancer Commons - This FaceBook Public Group is an active community where people discus various topics relevant to testicular cancer. It is popular and good for general support, but it isn't the best place to ask for hardcore medical information or discuss your detailed personal information. The advice is generally skin deep, and do you really want to reveal all your medical information on Facebook, let alone a public group?
