    Hey everyone, new here, unfortunately! I am a survivor of renal cell cancer. Just had a check up, again, and my doctor found lumps in my neck & collar bones and swollen lymph glands. I went for a ct scan and blood work yesterday. It is taking everything I have not to let the terror take over!

    I don't really know how to respond. I am a survivor of rcc where no chemo would work. Just take advantage of this website and as lame as it sounds, take it a day at a time. Be honest. I'll pray.

    I've been on this site for a while now - and decided to go way back to see what was posted. Are you still doing ok? I have now dealt with it twice as well (original kidney - then lung).
