Kidney cancer new diagnosis

I have been having investigations after my GP found hidden blood in my urine. First I had gynae scans - all clear then a cystoscopy also clear. Urology were going to discharge but thankfully there was still blood in the urine sample they took so I was sent for a contrast CT scan of pelvis and kidneys. I then received a letter on the nhs app to say they have found a small suspicious area on my right kidney. At this point I have not seen a doctor. I called up for further info and two days later a doctor called me. She explained they believe it’s cancer. The MDT met yesterday and I was told I’d hear something within two weeks. I still can’t believe I haven’t seen a human being about anything. What was the next steps??

  • My dad's kidney cancer was discovered during an x-ray of his kidney for stones he was in agony with. It meant it was discovered at an early stage so 18 years later he's completely cancer free. It took the affected kidney being removed but that was it. I'm sorry you're going through it but hopefully it gets dealt with in one op like my dad's and then you can say goodbye to cancer.
