Kidney Cancer after Bariatric Surgery

Apr 14, 2015

Hi all, in Nov 2014 I had my Kidney tumor removed right partial Nephrectomy yes was Cancer clear cell carcinoma , my pathology report came back with a positive margin for tumor remaining after surgery, my 3 month ct scan showed a 1 cm spot on surgery site (may be scar tissue) and scan showed a 5mm spot on Lung (pray it's cyst) due to my tumor being near my main Kidney artery  I'm concerned but have faith all will be alright,  I will get a new CT Scan in 6 Months will know then if spots grow Dr will handle this agressive and go back in and remove Kidney Tumor and refer me to specialist for lung if it grows. I need to focus on more water intake and somehow decrease my protein intake it's not good for our Kidneys but yet we need more since our Bariatric surgery . I thank God for my R&Y surgery with weight loss I couldn't have done this at my previous weight. Anyone dealing with Kidney Cancer I would love to exchange info and learn. God bless friends let's be healthy!
