    I had my left removed by a

    I had my left removed by a scope job in 2016 at the Cleveland Clinic.  The only dietary advice I received was not to go crazy with protein.  I eat a healthy, balanced diet and have done very well.

    You'll recover quickly from the surgery. 

    Relax, it's going to pass quickly.  Sounds like you caught it before metastises.  That's really good.  Just have them monitor you with routine scans to make sure nothing "pops up".  Good luck, and be healthy.

    I have not talked to my

    I have not talked to my surgeon yet, but I did get this information about my results online from the hospital.  BTW I had surgery at Huntsmans Cancer Hospital.  

     

    I am not sure exactly what it all means, but here are the results: Radical nephrology chromophobe renal cell carcinoma test positive.  4.5 cm, margins negative.  Ckit/CD 117 test positive, value SPF1, amount removed 16 × 8 × 5.4 cm. Tumor pushed into renal sinus fat with possible gross invasion.  Primary tumor pT1b.

    I am drinking plenty of water with lemon and trying to eat healthy.  Walking is my only excercise so far.  Looking forward to living cancer free from now on....

    strange path

    Tumor pushed into renal sinus fat with possible gross invasion.  Primary tumor pT1b.

    if possible gross sinus fat it already pt3a but they say pt1b
