Hello and thank you for posting. 

I'm afraid I don't know when your operation will be, as it will only be someone from your local hospital who can tell you what current waiting times are. Maybe you could give your consultants secretary a call to see if your consultant can get back to you about this.

There are waiting time targets for NHS cancer treatment which you can read about on our website at this link  

Your recuperation time will also be quite individual as it depends on your age and general health.

I am sorry I am unable to directly answer your questions, here is a link to our page on kidney cancer and here is our page on kidney surgery.

Take care Loki, and I hope you get the information you need soon.  You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline.  The number is Freephone 0808 800 4040, 9am till 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Sarah.
