Hi to all,  I have cancer in the right kidney and they say its contained and a full kidney removal is my treatment, however I will be left needing dialysis... now am i right not to worry about the cancer? because once they operate they will have taken all the cancer away.. so as I see it I will be cancer free.. or have I got myself all mixed up?

  • Hi  I don't understand this myself. Why would you need dialysis?

    Suggest you " ask an expert" n someone will come back to you. Please allow a couple of days as they're call volunteers.

    Fear of the unknown is the worst thing. Once we know what we're facing, we find the strength to deal with it.

    Hi buttercup, due to diabetes my kidneys together are functioning at between 40% and 50%, top brass fear once they remove my right kidney then I will need dialysis... 

    So I was fearing the chance of it spreading while they try to leave it as long as possible 

  • Oh dear  I understand now. Hope they can work out a way so you don't need dialysis.
