Hi, I am new here. Was diagnosed in 1/2014. Have a horseshoe kidney which makes it hard for surgery to take place. Had one tumor removed but still have another one nestled in the blood vessels coming into the kidney. Removing it could cause me to have to have dialysis for the rest of my life so I am content to watch it for now. Have a multitude of other problems but kidney function is still good and I am living a good life. Last CT scan revealed a cyst also on my kidney, but God is good!!

Welcome Sue. You just need to take it one thing at a time and one day. My wife’s oncologist has her drinking a glass lemonade each day. It has improved her kidney function number. Consult your oncologist on this. I don’t know your situation.
