Having had my right kidney removed in January 2020 metastases started appearing in 2022. The nodules/lesions in my left lung and lobe were very small and have subsequently disappeared but unfortunately not the ones on my liver and right adrenal gland...
Hi all, I'm due to start immunotherapy (Pembrolizumab) on Monday for a course of 9 treatments over a year. I had a nephrectomy in May and lucky to say all cancer was removed but because there is a chance of reoccurrence I've decided to go with the treatment...
