Good Morning, I hope everyone is doing well. I was diagnosed with Stage 4 kidney cancer 4th April 2024. I have posted on here a few times and now have an update. I went for my 3 month scans last week. My kidney tumor was 11.8 cm by 12cm and lung mets, in both lungs, around 28 altogether 15-22 mm. I went yesterday for my consultation and am extremely happy to report a reduction in both. Kidney tumor by 2cm and lung mets by 5mm. I was very shocked and surprised but unbelievably happy. I currently take Nivolumab by IV every 4 weeks, only had 3 so far. I also take Cabozantinib, 1 tablet everyday for around 3 months. I changed my diet, no processed foods, lots of vegetables and did 6 weeks no sugar. I started drinking lots of ginger and turmeric drinks and Essiac Tea. I know it’s early days but the cancer hasn’t spread anywhere else which is also good news. I honestly can’t believe the results and hope that the therapy continues to work for me. I feel I have come to terms with the diagnosis very well, it wasn’t this way in April and I thought my time was up. The news yesterday has elevated my determination to get this disease beat. Keep well everyone and try to remain as positive as possible. X
