Jan,
Jan,
Yep... Had I had the rash I never would have had the CT that found the mass. I have not had an episode of that pain since last wednesday. I am hoping it is gone. but I will be going to a new Primary care physician as my current one has not been on my list of favorites for a while now. This RCC has made me realize I need a Primary I am comfortable with and that cares more than my current. I only see him when I am "dying" because I feel like the service I get isn't the best. I see a few "specialists" for my knee's and female etc... but not one main Doc that I feel the same rapport I do with my specialists. Both my knees have to be replaced and never would I have thought that the surgery I would have this year would be for RCC! I have been working on becoming more physically healthy to prolong keeping my knees by changing my diet, working out 4 to 6 times a week and have lost 49 pounds doing that. I have had the gym on hold for about 6 weeks and cant wait to get back. I use ice for my knees all the time but never thought about it for the left side pain. I do have some lidocaine patches that have helped when it is bad. I am hoping that it is now over.
Thank you for being so kind and caring!
Angie

I had mine out total kidneysWehavenotimeatall said:Fairly similiar
and that was about six weeks apart?
Today I feel terrible no energy and feel as if not breathing right... very very scary
five days to go and every day is a nightmare
My son who I cant tell is being a complete idiot and he is normally a very good child He is 17
do you feel different now that it is out
I had mine out total kidneys Tuesday 9/19, 3.7 tumor and now I'm recuperating. It's a slow processs but I'm so glad it's out of me. Now I'll wait for the pathologist report.

Angie, good that you are
Angie, good that you are seeing a new Primary. I adore mine as she has saved me many times over, with her knowledge and ability to think outside the box. She was right every time!
You had a partial correct? I think you can still take NSAID, like Advil and such. I miss my NSAID. I had RX Diclofenac but can not longer take NSAIDS. I loved Diclofenac its an anti-inflammatory.
And do you take Glucosomine for your knees? It helps too.

Sending you wishes for continued good health with Hugs,
