    Check with your physician.

    Check with your physician. That's quite a long time after surgery. Hopefully it's nothing.

    Lots of things can cause pain, and it is easy to think the worst when you have already had a round or two with cancer.

    At least it should not be your kidney, if you had a radical.

    Have you been doing regular follow-up scans?  Where and what type of pain? All things your doctor is going to ask you when you go there, soon!

    Stay Positive,
