I had a CT scan less then 2 weeks ago and I had a call on Friday morning to say there had found a dense patch in my left kidney about 2.8cm in size and I needed an MRI. 

They have also found 2 x 1cm dots in one of my lungs but I've had a virus / chest infection for ages now so it could just be that .

There is also a problem at the bottom of my bowel which they think is a tubular cyst but it's not changed from the last scan but they want to have it checked .

I asked them outright if they thought the kidney problem was cancer and she said yes they did think it was but then again it could be a benign tumour.

im going on holiday on Friday and they have said I can still go but I have been referred to the renal team and colorectal team for when I get back .

I feel a bit .... well I don't really know how I feel , it somehow doesn't feel real and I'm scared , I'm terrified of having an MRI too as I don't like small spaces. 
 

im going to try and out it to the back of my mind fir my holidays but it's going to be tough .

Any advice will be greatly appreciated x
