Hi ya, Have you learnt any other information, if it has returned or not. Hopefully everything will be ok. My mother had a nephrectomy in Jan 2008, she saw her oncologist yesterday and everything is clear so far, still time will tell is early days yet. I didnt realise that chemotherapy has no effect in kidney cancer, I was expecting my mother to have some kinda therapy but seems not. They have suggested her going on a trial drug which may keep it at bay, but were not sure whether to try it or not, can never tell when somethings still on trial whether it will do good or not bit of a risk. My mothers diagnose was stage 3 as tumour had grown quite large unfortunately. But shes doing really well shes recovered quickly from the operation, as you will have experienced is a major op. Its the psychological part of it really thats difficult to deal with some days shes ok, others not so good. Your lucky it was found in early stage and I hope your health is still ok, you mentioned you have diabetes type 2, my brother has diabetes type 1 his 43 now and his had it since he was 20, he seems to manage ok, he has to inject insulin three times a day, type 2 diabetes is not quite so bad. Wishing you well and let me know how you are getting on Maddy |
