Yes.......a scary as it may
Yes.......a scary as it may be, definitely get it checked out further. Sometimes you have to push until you get a reaction. Then push some more until you get answers.
hang in there.

This happens.
These days a lot of kidney cancers are initially diagnosed serendipitously as the result of scans for other conditions. Mine was found as part of an ultra-sound on my bladder.
3 cm is not big (yet) and kidney cancer is rather slow growing compared to some others, so don't panic, but by all means get this seen to and sorted out. Partial nephrectomy is not so bad, especially if you are still relatively young and in reasonable health.
Best of luck with this.
