    Hello margfair,

    Welcome to the forum! You have come to the right place to talk to others who may be in a similar situation. Having to lie flat for 8 weeks must be so difficult. We hope you receive your kidney results soon so you can start your treatment.

    If you ever needed to talk to our specialist nurses, don't hesitate to give them a call on freephone 0808 800 4040 Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

    Best wishes,

    Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
