Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma: Interested in ureter repair options

I have ureter cancer and already had my left kidney and ureter removed. The surgery went well, and the recovery wasn't bad. Now, I am looking at a round of chemotherapy, which I dread. Have you had your surgery yet? I don't know anyone with the same issue and was hoping to share my experience with someone who is dealing with the same type of cancer. Thanks.

the main tumor was in my kidney pelvis. On July 18th, they removed my kidney and ureter. Now they are talking about chemo and I need to get a second opinion, this is all very stressful. They called my cancer upper urothelial carcinoma of the left kidney pelvis. They want me to have nivolumab. I can't have immunotherapy due to other health issues I have.
What are they recommending for your treatments?
