ok so back in 2012 my mum got diagnosed with kidney cancer and at that ver same time also got told she only actually had 1 kidney! Total shook to her! Her tumour was around 7-9cm and had stayed within the kidney! She had her only kidney removed and was put onto dialysis. They also found a very small lung nodule which they kept an eye on, just before Xmas she had a pet scan to check the lung nodule and to maybe get some kind of answer as to whether it was CANCER nodule. She went back last week for her results and was told the lung nodule hadn't shown on her scan but a possible tumour is on one of her hips. She is having a hip biopsy this tues and I am going out of my head with shear worry! Few questions I need answered are, if the CANCER remained within the kidney like they said does this mean it won't be a cancer spread from the kidney to her hip? Or is it possible that it hadn't remained in her kidne and they got it wrong? She isn't in any pain on her hip but surely what they found has to be something? In general how long does a cancer take if it's gonna spread? So so anxious right now and just feel sick constantly! Any advice or personal experiences would be really welcomed right now xx
