On my hospital letter to GP it describes my growth as a large lesion and though I know this is a Timor I guess it’s slightly different , abnormal cell area which makes me think that it is more aggresive . I know I should not 2 nd guess but the build up to my oncologist appointment is looming. Also I know it is a personal decision to ask about prognosis but I am very anxious about this and might just want to talk about my condition and treatment plan . Can anyone tell me how it plays out at these appointments.

No symptoms apart from the haematuria. Some days I don't quite feel 100% though, and a bit more tired than usual as I wake up once or twice a night to go and pee. But no pain or discomfort, I cannot even feel the enlarged kidney.

I believe they refer to them as lesions until know what it is.

Mine was 5cm, there was a possibility it was oncocytoma as this and RCC look similar on the imaging.

I feel very very lucky to have the consultant I have, she has been amazing, explains things well and really thorough.

If you have questions ask them, i wrote down things that popped into my head on the run upto 1st appointment.
