I had a radio frequency ablation on my left kidney in 2024 due to kidney cancer. Procedure was done as a day procedure with anesthesia and I was able to leave the hospital the same day. Medical staff requested that I stay in the city close to the hospital in case there were problems. Recovery was not difficult, but I did have some limitations such as no driving, lifting etc. . I recommend you have the ablation. I have no regrets and I have been cancer free for over 1 year.
