Small indeterminate kidney lesion - Very Nervous

@abbigail89 I can relate to your frustration. Blood tests, ultrasounds, MRI and a tentative diagnosis of renal carcinoma ( 3 cm lesion on right kidney). All within 2 weeks. One thing I have learned is that kidney cancer is relatively slow growing. I saw the lesion on the MRI report but it was impossible to determine the size and extension of the tumor. My GP was able to read it and said it most likely cancer. After repeated calling to surgeons office I now have an appointment 2 weeks from now just to talk about the testing results. My feeling is that I just want it out but waiting for the best doc to do the surgery will have to take precendence. Very hard to wait.

@pattymltn that’s the crazy part the amount of waiting that is done. I’ve been waiting 6 months I’ve had the tests done. Been told
Many different things. Drs don’t like to help anymore. They don’t even care to learn your name either. Well I hope everything goes good for you.
