Hi Teri - thank you for your response. You can probably tell already, but I'm nervous and a bit scared. Ok...maybe a lot scared. Not only for the procedure itself, but about the cancer coming back. The when and where of it all.
This week I'm to be contacted by an interventional radiologist. The kidney tumor is now 1.7 to 1.8 cm. Glad you talked about recovery. A friend of mine who is a CNA is going to look after me for a few days. I'll have to make sure I get her a coffee shop gift certificate as a thank you gift.

@donnachaidh Hi Donna! Happy to help! It sounds like you will be well taken care of post procedure, so that is one worry taken care of. As for the rest of the worry/concern/anxiety… just go day by day and allow all the feelings to process. It gets easier with time, for sure.
I’m here if you need to talk!
