Thank you Ron, I appreciate your reply. I haven't been very active as the Votrient pill makes me so nauseous but I will try very hard to start exercising again. I believe walking is excellent.

Hi. I too have kidney cancer . I am on a pill called Votrient, but even though I take anti nausea pills I don't manage to eat enough and keep losing weight.
Anyone got any suggestions? I would be very grateful. I am 77 and my name is Sally.
Last CT scan showed that cancer in left kidney has not spread. At 81 I continue to feel that having kidney removed will cause me more problems that will negatively effect my quality of life. Initial diagnosis was made about six months ago. Energy levels are a little low, but generally I feel fine and am able to walk daily and do other tasks with no difficulty. Next scan will be done in about six months.
