I’m glad you liked the surgeon. Hope the test with contrast shows that the cancer hasn’t spread. If it has can the surgery be brought forward?Met with the surgeon today … told me that the tumor is small … that I have to have an open surgery where they cut you open 6 inches … takes a long time to recover … months … so he said we can wait to do the surgery in January, when my husband is retired and home with me … says that the cancer grows very slowly in the kidney and it is safe to wait until January. He does not believe it has spread, but I will be going through tests to make sure … I have to go back on November 2nd to get an MRI with contrast … he said the MRI with contrast is a safe test for the kidneys.
I liked this surgeon a lot … he is very serious and gives you a sense that he is sure of himself.
