Adrenal mass

Can anyone help me, I've done lots of goggle searches but can't find many in my situation.

Background is a kidney infection with suspected kidney stones had a CT scan no kidney stones found but they did see a 1 to 2 cm adrenal mass that they said looks benign 

My scan was relooked at yesterday now I need to wait till Tuesday when the adrenal team can have another look that's worrying me

Also have left sided pain from ribs to hip left side same side as mass don't think I'd be as worried if I wasn't in pain, the pain they origanally thought was kidney stones 

If I had cancer that's spread would that have been  noticed on ct scan ? I'm just so worried about it all and starting to panic 

Sorry for this being so long would love people to talk to me.

  • Hi lilly if it's only on adrenal if they take the gland out no worries you can live without them, mine haven't worked for over thirteen years now. I can give you what information I have if you want, best wishes.

    I noticed you posted on a discussion that hasn't been active in quite some time, so there's a strong possibility you may not receive a reply.

    If that turns out to be the case, don't hesitate to start your own discussion, or if you'd prefer you can try to find more recent discussions about adrenal masses using the 'search forum' option at the top of the page.

    I'm really sorry to hear what you're going through at the moment. It must be really tough but I and the rest of the Cancer Chat community are sending you all our support and will have our fingers crossed you're able to get some much needed answers about this soon.
