@peachieb, I'd like to add my welcome along with @pamcaponio. I agree with her thoughts about the possible value of getting a second opinion.

Peach, I moved your post to this existing discussion:
- What diagnostic tests needed to determine renal cell carcinoma?https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/kidney-biopsy-needed

I did this so you can and connect with additional members like @paulinlouisiana @roadrunner59 @mb4414, who were asking similar questions about diagnostic testing and read the previous helpful tips offered by @gingerw @collegeprof and others.

Thank you so much. I am new to this program but look forward to informing myself and finding helpful discussions

I am having cryoablation for my RCC on Monday afternoon.
After reading probably too much info, I decided this was the approach I wanted to try. Luckily, I am a good candidate for this treatment.
The waiting is horrible and I couldn’t see myself waiting 6 months to find out if the tumor grew.
I will update my status when I can.
