Kidney cancer

Recurrence of renal cancer

2022-06-12T11:28:00Z

I am a 74-year-old woman who in 2013 found out that my left kidney had to be removed. In 2021 it was discovered I had a lesion on my remaining adrenal glands and also the CT results showed a lesion on the tail of my pancreas and then another CT scan showed lesion on my remaining kidney me.
first it was decided to remove the adrenal gland and then I would be on steroid treatment but then they decided not to remove the adrenal gland as they found a small lesion on my remaining kidney.
it was decided to leave well alone so I have another CT scan in July to see if things have remained stable.
so I have lesions on those three areas.

after getting over the initial shock, i’ve continued leading my life as best I can and wait for the next step.

when the time comes it may be necessary for me to be on some treatment which is a bit of a scary prospect but you have to take each step at a time and try and remain positive for as long as possible although there are bad days as well as good days

I am new to this site and was introduced to you by a very good friend.

My gran was diagnosed with kidney cancer a couple of weeks ago and I am hoping that you will be able to give me some advice as she is 92 years old, but otherwise in excellent health and she has been given the option of having her kidney removed which she has chosen. Anyway I will probably be better to post more information in the forum regarding her situation but I just wanted to say hello and that I am looking forward to getting to know you.
