Sally
I just finished treatment for esophageal cancer tumor and the last 2 CT scans with contract showed a lesion on my left kidney which has grown by 1 cm. On Monday of this week I had biopsy of the lesion and will find out what it is next Tuesday. They took biopsy by going between ribs in my back while I was lying on my side. Do you know what your next proposed step is yet?

My oncologist wants to wait 3 more months for another CT scan. Then if its still concerning, we will try to biopsy my lung.

Hi Don. I am so sorry that you are going through so much. My MRI showed that the kidney cancer is stable and has not spread so they are keeping me on the Votrient pill. Unfortunately I also have a kidney disease called Thin Membrane Disease . It is genetic. My sister had it and now her daughter has it. I am trying follow the Kidney diet but am losing a lot a weight. On Thursday I have to see the Nephrologist as my parathyroid gland reading is high again. They have already removed one and am pretty sure they will remove another. So I am sort of between the devil and the deep blue sea.....trying to control the disease and the cancer. At the same time I am using a Rife machine......do you know of it? It's alternative but I am trying what I can.
Will you let me know what your biopsy results are? Did you write this reply in August? I only saw it this morning and apologize if I am late in answering.

Don, sorry I see there is another Sally and you were addressing her. I am new to this site and thought it was a reply to me. Put it down to age !!!! I do hope you are on treatment and doing well.
