Have to go back for second CT scan due to the first being of poor quality. They spotted a lesion on my kidney, but do t know what it is. I had a clear scan three years ago, so was thinking that if it is worst case scenario, the growth would be relatively small. The Dr I saw classes it as a small lesion, however not sure what that means. Hopefully it is a cyst as I already have one elsewhere on my kidney. It's the waiting that is the thing, just over s week to go and exhausted Google!
Hi Swisstony,
