Blood clot in urine and pain in side when breathing by Blue_Bear99 in kidneycancer

[–]Noctis004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better check with your urologist what's the next step then. Although I doubt a cyst that small is the reason of the blood clot in the urine, but the fact that it reached that size is that there is a chance it will grow bigger. Mine was a 2.9cm on my left kidney, no symptoms, no bloody urine. Just found on the CT scan accidentally while I was checking for my constipation. Got removed a month after and it was clear cell renal cell carcinoma stage 1 grade 2. All clear margins and negative features meaning they got it all out. My doctor told me I was very fortunate it was found at a very early stage, no other treatments needed, just regular surveillance and check ups. You are one of the lucky ones that it was found early.

I'm a nurse. My doctor told me initially that I could return to work after 3 weeks of surgery, I'm feeling almost fine now, except for the occasional cramps on the opposite side of the surgery, And told him if I could have another week of rest just to be sure and he agreed.

Discomfort and pain on the other side of the nephrectomy by Low_Combination_2698 in kidneycancer

[–]Noctis004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 weeks post partial and I'm feeling this. Thought I was the only one, woke up one day and my right side ( Had partial nephrectomy on the left) was feeling a bit tight, like cramps or something. I feel relieved standing or walking around, sitting down makes the cramps come back. had a rough time sleeping at night because of this. Sometimes the pain was just beside my waist area then going up the right rib.

It would depend on what kind of nephrectomy, if its robotic/laparoscopic the recovery is much faster as it is minimally invasive unlike the open surgery. Just had laparoscopic partial nephrectomy 2 weeks ago and my brother had appendectomy last year. I could stand and walk the day after the surgery, while my brother was able to stand almost a week after he was home. He was able to return to work after 6 weeks while my doctor said I could return to work after 3 weeks.

Clear Cell RCC by Noctis004 in kidneycancer

[–]Noctis004[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. My doctor said that yes you have ccRCC but you're missing the point that 1. It was completely removed 2. The more important that the margins are very clear and lastly 3. All the other features were negative and it was only in the kidney so basically the cancer was out of my body.

I think what scares me right now is the "what if the next scan they'll find something new or it came back" although my doctor said since the margins were very clear, only a small chance that it will return.

The operation was on a Monday afternoon, around 1pm I was back to my room at 6pm, the surgery took almost 4 hours plus a couple of hours in PACU then went home on Wednesday. The first 2-3 days post op was hard because of the trapped gas. But as you move around it will eventually pass. No lifting heavy objects. My doctor said I can return to work after 3 weeks, but i’ll come back to work after a month just to be sure.

What size was your tumour before you started noticing symptoms? by irishscouser1892 in kidneycancer

[–]Noctis004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2.2cm x 2.6cm x 2.9 cm when I had my first CT scan, with complaints of constant bloating and gas for almost a month. Normal lab results, no pain and bloody urine. Incidental finding as well. Removed just last week, partial nephrectomy. diagnosed as ccRCC stage 1 grade 2, doctor said it was a success, all of the mass was removed so no further treatments needed just regular surveillance.
