My kidney cancer surgery was Oct 2024. The actual reason I went was for a neuroendocrine tumor on my carotid artery, but when they found the 2 kidney tumors I made that the priority. Carotid tumor surgery was last yr in July.
Because of my kidney cancer, though they 'got it all', I'm considered an Intermediate Risk for recurrence, so have been dubbed a Forever Patient of Mayo's. I started out every 3 mos for checkups after kidney surgery, but after 2 three-month stints, they expanded it to 6 mos... I totally eat for my labs and religiously ride my stationery bike 6 mi every a.m. (& I'm 70 yrs old).😊
Mayo has been very impressed with my labs. I am so grateful for them saving my life that I absolutely am not going to mess this up through any fault of my own.
Next visit is October.
