Waiting for results

 

I am 66 year old female who has had past non malignant tumour on kidney had partial kidney removal 5 years ago . Have had flank pain so have had CT scan again then fast tracked for another CT and MIR due to calcified ovary and lung abnormality . Now have to wait for results . Kidney fine . Just worried again re diagnosis after last time took 8 months to find out tumour non malignant when originally it was thought to be malignant. So this time maybe my luck running out
