in Kidney Cancer #1

i went to my surgeon today for a one week check up from a partial nephrectomy done last Monday. Healing very well with minimal pain. Today the surgeon said I don't have any restrictions... Wow. Of course I will be taking it easy for awhile. No lifting either. 

The great part is my pathology report came back and I Do Not have kidney cancer....wow. He said I had a cyst. So another scan in 3 months and a urine test to check for kidney stone formation. 

I am so relieved. I thought for sure that I had RCC.

so, maybe there are positive moments in a life marred by hardship.

so, I thanked God today for His goodness.

Peter

    That's great news, Peter!  I

    That's great news, Peter!  I'm so happy for you!  You must be so relieved!  I'm surprised they couldn't tell you had a cyst from the CT scan.  How big was it?

    Fantastic Peter!  I bet even

    Fantastic Peter!  I bet even with being only a week out from surgery you were ready to do some backflips after hearing that. 

    Make sure you leave your RCC membership ring and ID card at the door when you leave since you're not part of the club.  But you are still welcome as a guest.

    I had a similar outcome. Had

    I had a similar outcome. Had 3 radiologists and 2 surgeons that told me that I had a 4cm RCC based on the CT and MRI images but it turned out to be a benign oncocytoma.
