I'm not sure will find out next week

Mass is gone, he said he got it all, but what if it is some place else. Awaiting PET scan and oncology referral. Still site pain but overall not the worst I have been through.

Left kidney removed when diagnoised in 2005

taking out the mass 9cm and right kidney, helped, but it had metastizied to my right lung already.

had a full nephrectomy on the right, then 9 years later, cancer returned in the left and had a parital nephrectomy. It's been 5 years and so far so good.

Cryoablation Worked, but experienced a lot more post-procedural pain than I expected...still having that pain a year later.

It worked and its been 8 years this past April.

I had an open radical nephrectomy because they were also removing my ovaries. My incision was down the middle of my abdomen, which made my recovery easier. I was in the hospital 5 days and was off of the pain meds completely after about 10 days. Went back to work part time (office/desk job) at 3 weeks, just returning to full time after 6 weeks.

So far so good.
