Hi. I was diagnosed with kidney cancer 3 weeks ago. Had ct scan last Wednesday. Waiting for results is making me really anxious. Wondering if anyone else is in same position as me.

Hello Neferet
I'm sorry to hear that you've recently been diagnosed with kidney cancer.
It's understandable that you're feeling anxious about things and I think that most of our members here know how difficult this period of uncertainty can be whilst waiting for results and information. Hopefully, you won't have to wait too long for an appointment to discuss the next steps with the Consultant.
We do have some members here who have/had kidney cancer and you might like to read through some of those posts by using the forum search function (magnifying glass at the top of the page) to search for the term "kidney cancer".
You're also most welcome to give our team of nurses a call to talk things through with them. I'm sure they will be able to give you some information and support ahead of your next appointment. If you would like to speak to them they're available Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm on 0808 800 4040.
Keep in touch Neferet and let us know how you get on.
Best wishes,
Jenn
