Hi  kidney cancer's,  a slow grower compared with other cancers. Also there are many meds available, both ordinary n immunotheraphy. Indeed a no of ppl in this group have been stagec4' for years,incl myself.

Once he has a treatment plan you'll feel happier. It's the not knowing that gets to folk. 

Do let us know how you get on with the oncologist.

Thank you sooooo much for your reply, I’ve been so worried, he’s been very down and obsessing over thoughts of chemo, he has OCD so it’s been v stressful 

yes once we have a plan of action hopefully that will give him a boost, he’s lost a lot of weight and it’s hard to get him to eat as his tastes have changed, and I have to nag him to exercise as he’s always so tired (so I feel super mean) I need to apply for financial help as he’s a self employed sports coach, and I quit my job late 2019 to set up my own small business so I’m struggling to earn enough, it was supposed to be a part time so I’m trying to grow that as well. TBH I’m exhausted. 

it’s a maze of emotion and practicalities and I’m trying to sort it all with a head full of fog 

it’s so good to hear how well you’re doing, you’ve given me hope so thank you  

best

Thank you 

you’re an absolute star 

let’s hope once they get him on the right treatment he can get active again, maybe even work part time, he just loves his job so much 

you’ve given me hope
