Anyone dealing with concurrent prostrate and kidney cancer (RCC)?

Good to know it was timely detected and that you are doing well. My husband had a regular CT scan in which the Kidney RCC was discovered. He has had his kidney removed just last week. When we asked for a PSMA scan, the surgeon told us that once he has had his prostrate surgery than he will send for a PSMA scan.
Was your PSMA scan done before or after your prostate surgery, i am assuming you went the surgery route vs. radiation.

I didn't realized I had typo'd my comment about spreading. In fact, there was NO spread outside of the prostate. The PSMA scan confirmed that (obviously before) which is why I decided on surgery versus radiation.

Coming up on 19 months since my RARP and 16 months since my right lower lobectomy and (knock on wood), I'm doing great.
