Hello iam a 62 year old woman who has had Cancer for over a year now, I had a full Nepharectomy, ( Kidney removed) and lymph node, however there is still Cancer present in my Paraortic Node and my own surgeon has referred me to another hospital 3 hours away, he said the operation was too complicated for them. My gut instinct is too not have this surgery, iam not a nervous person and have had various medical procedures before, I just feel it’s not right for me. I have a husband who says it’s up to me, I have no family or children. I can still have treatment too slow down the spread of the Cancer in the future. Even with surgery, the Oncologist has said it will come back , so is it just buying more time.
Regards M
