Hi, I’ve recently (well 2 days ago) had a call from my consultant regarding my CT scan result as I have two hernias in my abdomen.
I was expecting to hear what type of operation I would be having. Totally unprepared to hear I have a growth in my right kidney and need an MRI scan next week.
Currently, they have no idea whether it’s benign or malignant. I fell to pieces, and then thanked my hernia discomfort for ensuring the mass was found at this stage (although I’m so new to this, I still don’t know what stage that is).
I’ve made the decision to not share this news with my family as my husband, God bless him, would fall to pieces, and I would end up having to ‘be strong for him’, and I don’t feel I can at the moment.
What does anyone think of this? Has anyone else done this? Thanks in advance.
