I had a partial nephrectomy, open, on 2/24. I'm 48. I worked hard at getting over surgery, and returned to work exactly 3 wks after. I'm still concerned about the next CT scan, but otherwise doing well.

    Hi I am 57 and started this whole process when I was 43 with RCC and they took my Rt kidney It met to my left lung in 1989 and again to my rt lung in 2003 I still get a little nervous before each ct scan. each time it has been contained so surgery has been the option each time. it works as long as I don't run out of extra parts.
