Hi. Sorry to hear about your diagnosis. You came to a great place. You will find lots of support here.

What kind of cancer is it? Can you tell us more?

Right kidney, core biopsy: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma, preliminary WHO/ISUP grade 2.
Size = 3.6 cm (Stage 1).
They found it by 'accident", they found mass when they did lung CT scan, then followed up with renal CT scan, then biopsy.
No symptoms.
My Urologist says it's slow growing and can wait for surgery to remove it several months (until spring 2025). But my gut tells me, the sooner the better.
