CT scan for something else, no symptoms. Been doing some reading on cancer sites for info - had no clue about anything to do with kidney cancer and pathology wording doesn't sound good per my reading. On a better note, no evidence of metastatic disease. Dr. seemed encouraging it was contained but need full removal due to the location and size. Any insights or advice on surgery, recovery appreciated.
