Hi spoke to the urologist a week ago, have 8cm tumor rt kidney. Had an MRI on my liver, but luckily it turned out to be a hemangioma.
Yesterday I was driving back from town to home and started feeling a bit off, blurry vision, heart rate up, dizzy
Made it home, told wife I didn't feel right, 111 ambulance on its way, by which time I was feeling dreadful, blood pressure was 280 over something, felt sick, bit of chest pain.
Off to hospital ECGs fine, bloods fine etc
Can Renal Cancer cause Adrenaline levels to surge, or is this likely to be a panic attack.
It scared the living daylights out of me.
Hi Chippyj67,
The most likely was a panic attack or stress, stress can do all sorts of things to our bodies and sometimes you think you are dying, I actually do meditation every morning to try help me stop stressing and getting anxious, I am glad it wasn’t anything to worry about take care Sandy
