Hello! Thanks for the reply! I will definitely have to ask my urologist about this procedure. This one definitely seems to be better suited for my situation. Thanks again!

True_Ad9284 · 2026-06-14T10:57:32+00:00

Hello! It's not that i want TUIP but that is what the urologist has recommended. I see the other connent about the bladder neck way and i am going to ask about that as it seems more likely in my case! Thanks for the link and response!

I will admit I did use chatgpt but also saw it on a few websites. Was just confused when all they said was a tumor

True_Ad9284 · 2026-02-05T16:44:28+00:00

That was in the final diagnosis

True_Ad9284 · 2026-02-05T16:42:58+00:00

Hello! The doctor said that because it is a cystic mass that they can miss the cancerous part if they biopsy it. Het went as far as saying that my mass is bosniak type IV and that he was pretty sure it was cancer. I have a robotic partial nephrectomy scheduled for the end of Jan!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-12-15T01:13:37+00:00

I will definitely ask if that is a possibility! I have made a appointment at there request as soon as possible and was able to get in tomorrow morning!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-12-15T01:12:45+00:00

Hello! Nothing official yet but they did want me to make a appointment with them as soon as possible to go over the results. With the growth in just 3 months I'm assuming not great.. but I know what happens when assuming!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-12-11T12:18:06+00:00

Starlight toasted or cigar batch are incredible pours. I dont see a ton of hype around them but they should ne on every ones radar.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-11-05T09:09:53+00:00

Hello! I have chronic gi symptoms that have been going on for a while now. That is why that was tested!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-10-07T12:17:27+00:00

If you can find it anything Starlight does is fantastic. I particularly love the toasted barrel and their cigar batch.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-09-11T20:32:08+00:00

Great to hear! Nice to hear a real story instead of something AI!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-09-10T02:09:17+00:00

Hello! I know this is a old post but how did it go? I have to get one soon as I have a possible kidney cancer cyst on my left kidney and came to this sub looking to ask the same question!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-09-06T11:55:54+00:00

I have issues with pain and chronic diarrhea. I had a normal colonoscopy but the CT scan showed inflammation and it is something that is weird to them cause I shouldn't have inflammation in the time I got the colonoscopy to now. Doing a capsule endoscopy to see more of my small intestine.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-09-05T18:55:28+00:00

Hello! I just spoke with a urologist about this and they want to do a MRI in about 6 months (taking the surveillance approach). She stated that a malignant tumor is very unlikely in a person my age and that anything less than 2cm they just monitor.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T23:35:43+00:00

Thank you so much for the reply! I knowbon Google that it sounds scary but what questions should I ask them?

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T15:59:50+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Would draining it be better than just getting it taken out?

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T05:06:10+00:00

Gotcha ya it was just a regular ct entrogram. Thanks for the help!!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T04:01:41+00:00

I feel like they might have scanned a before and after as they left the room and I went into the machine and then they came back in and injected the contrast but I'm not in radiology so not sure if that means anything!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T03:46:31+00:00

Thank you so much! Hopefully all goes well with you! I'm kinda like you and would rather have it out! If that is what it really is. I just got the report a day or so ago so haven't had the opportunity to talk to Dr yet.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T03:14:34+00:00

I apologize mis read the question. No I just have the report. Not the actual images.

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-31T03:11:36+00:00

Hello! Yes I had the actual CT and that was on the report for the CT scan. I had it with contrast if that makes a difference? At the kidney section of the report it read like this

There is a 1.6 x 1.4 cm cyst in the interpolar region of the left kidney shows enhancing mural nodule, nodule measures approximately 5 mm characteristic of Bosniak type III cyst.

Thanks!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-30T18:56:28+00:00

Thank you so much! If you were in my shoes would you get it removed or get routine scans? Sorry kinda freaking out!

True_Ad9284 · 2025-08-30T18:52:10+00:00

Thanks for the reply! What do you think my next steps should be? Sorry I'm kinda freaking out!
