That’s great it hasn’t spread! Going through this process was/is a mental nightmare and for me, praying kept me sane since there was/is very little we can do! Have the drs talked about having a biopsy to confirm it’s cancer? No other way to determine it is 100% cancer other than having a biopsy.

Hi......I am sorry to hear what they say about the results of the MRI. I hope that when you see the surgeon on Monday he first does a biopsy to make doubly sure. Because mine was contained in the kidney they decided on treatment with the Votrient pill and a diet. Granted the Votrient makes me nauseous and I have lost a lot of weight (one of the side effects of Votrient) but I cannot lose my kidney as the other kidney only works a small bit. I don't want to bore you with my condition but I also have a genetic disease called thin Membrane Disease which put me into stage 4 kidney failure before the cancer came along. Where the cancer came goodness only knows. There's no cancer in my family.
Now I have given you a whole lot of useless information not regarding your problem.....but I truly hope they do a biopsy first to see if they can treat you and keep your kidney. Please keep us posted. Blessings.

I glad to hear it has not moved outside of the kidney.
Consider all options... but if a tumor is creating havoc on your kidney, even if benign... it's still damaging the kidney. Like my Dr said... "as you can see on the scan , it's something that shouldn't be there "

My husband was diagnosed in April with renal cell carcinoma. It was in his ureter, the tube that connects to the kidney. He had his right kidney removed. It was an unremarkable surgery. He did well. He has since had chemotherapy. Prayers to you for all to go well❤️
