Hi, I was diagnosed with kidney cancer beginning of July and was told they would remove the kidney. One ct scan and two mris later and I am told that I have lesions on two vertebrae and also in my liver. Now I have been told that the kidney will not be taken out and the ‘medication route’ will be taken.
I had a biopsy ten days ago and was told that it would tell the oncologist what type of cancer it is and will then guide him to the correct medication.
I hear people say that kidney cancer is a slow grower but back at beginning of July it was seven centimetres and now it is ten centimetres.
even though I understand that I have this cancer it also difficult to accept as generally I feel well. Being put on medication which will give me nasty side effects seems doesn’t fill me with glee.
