Hi
I've dealt with cancer on two occasions. Bladder and Prostate, so you could say I'm a veteran. Now, as I explained recently I only have one kidney and have a slow growing cyst that has been under observation for over 8 years.
The situation changed last year when the cyst started growing (I have mentioned this before), now at 3.8 cm. My consultant wanted a further scan in 3 months, but after a chat my CSN (highly qualified) has indicated that she wants a partial nephrectomy done (possibly cryogenic). She has my full support and the MDT are meeting next week (it would have been this week, but there's been a Bank Holiday).
I'm happy for the procedure, it's a great relief, but I started to get thoughts of: "what if the team say no." Unlikely I know, given my CSN's experience and I imagine she has made some preliminary moves, well she indicated that was she was going to do. Just started a little anxiety out of the blue.
Any similar experiences?
