Hi all , got my kidney biopsy date today , 11th November, its not been that long since I had my ct scan , but least I have a date , is it a good sign to get the biopsy date early or later , i feel fine I've got the date , but now it's the fear what the diagnosis is from the biopsy , any pointers from anybody ,
No sign, they just slot you in PDQ based on history. You might get a head scan at the same time. I did but mine was at the Vic in KDY. It's just routine. I'll send you a link to my biopsy blog later. On Train right now.
I don't know why no one else has chipped in yet - I feel we're having a 1-2-1 chat lol
Hi Deek,
Glad to hear you have got a date quickly. My biopsy showed renal cell cancer and to be honest it was a relief to come out of the limbo of not knowing. It’s strange, but even though the results showed cancer, I actually felt better than not knowing.
I had a radical nephrectomy and all seemed to go well.
Let us know how you get on.
Sending you a big hug and all the best for the 11th.
Best wishes

Just read your blog , what a masterpiece , I didn't actually notice the letter from the hospital as I had chaos in the house today and last night, the normal painkiller before going to bed last night and a hit of caffeine, just moved of my celestial couch , then the lights went , not for me , just half of meadowbank, unfortunately my side , ladder out , standing on the last rung ( well I am a self employed buider ) trying to find the RCD , with phone in hand , find RCD absolutely zilch , unlock door , out of the stair , all stairs are pitch black , except for mobile phone lights, back in the house , 5G on , yes 6 people have beaten me before I have a rant at SP Energy , off to bed , that's just the start of the melodrama , I will add Part 2 later if anybodys interested , just me letting of wee bit steam .
