Hi everyone,
I had a radical open nephrectomy 7 weeks ago after a CT scan showed a 80mm tumour on the right kidney.
I am a 51 year old woman with no health issues until now! Keen to get back to my normal life, going back to work and exercising (swimming and running) but worried about doing too much too quickly or not enough and becoming lazy!
The operation happened 2 weeks after seeing the consultant. The kidney and adrenaline gland were removed leaving a 23cm diagonal scar below the ribs. The scar is healing well but have no feeling below the scar.
