I am a 75 year old woman, very active and always thought healthy and have been diagnosed with RCC. It has metastasized to my lungs. I am trying to find a support group to give support and to receive it.

    Hello, I'm in your situation. Breast cancer, now they found renal cancer and are doing a biopsy on my lungs. I'm 66, it's overwhelming. Everytime they take a new scan or MRI they find something else. I'm doing a mastectomy on June 10th then on to my kidney.

    Not yet, I'm going to a urologist in a couple weeks after my mastectomy. One of the nurses said they will probably remove it.
