i was wondering how many if any Colorectal Cancer patients there are out there with Kidney Failure. it's my understanding i've set some kind of record to have survived this long with Stage IV CC and also have kidney failure. i do dialysis 3 times a week and of course all the requirements there are to be as healthy as one can be with that ailment and CC. ugh!!! so, anyone out there a patient and or know a patient with Kidney Failure and CC. stage 1-4?

Kidney
Stage III and one kidney failed because of a fluid build up. The fluid was aspirated and kidney function started to increase - at thirty percent now. I have scheduled a procedure for a stint with the hope of full function recovery, so our situations are not very similar. So all I can really offer is a bit of encouragement.
Ed, I hope you are doing well. The kidneys really are amazing. If you where to talk to my nephrologist you would think he was talking about the brain or something. Any chance of at least partial function recovery?0
