Hi All,
I was diagnosed with kidney cancer back in November 2024 and had surgery in March this year, while it was successful I developed an infection and was back on the ward a week later.
I’m now 6 months post surgery and had my first scan last week, but I’m still struggling mentally with what happened.
Does anyone know of a support group in London for kidney cancer patients?
Thanks
