Hi
I was hoping to find someone with the same diagnosis of transitional renal cell carcinoma, to then go on to a have radical nephrectomy surgery followed by 1 round of chemotherapy which caused sepsis and pneumonia so no more chemotherapy. Then to be told it has spread to the paraortic lymph nodes, so there is no more treatment.
Hi mitch1972 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I don't have this type of cancer but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list and hopefully some of the forum members will be able to pop on and share their experiences with you.
While you're waiting for replies, it would be great if you could put something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
