At the end of May it was confirmed by the Urology professor that I have a 43mm RCC on my only kidney and he ordered a PET scan to check my lymph nodes as there was some inflammation in some of the surrounding ones showing on the CT scan.
I am waiting for the results for that, which I am hoping soon as the waiting is pure torture.
My question is, shouldn't there be some kind of treatment plan in place with regards to the RCC and then deal with the lymph node involvement (if any) or is it normal practice to check these first?
I see so many people starting treatment or having surgery within a couple of months of diagnosis and I'm already a month in with no idea of what the plan could be and still talk of a possible biopsy
I would be grateful of any advice on this matter
Thank you
