Awaiting nephrectomy

Hi Guys,

I'm new to this community and thought I'd introduce myself.

I am currently awaiting a full left nephrectomy (date is 15th Dec) for a large renal tumour. The last few weeks have been a bit of a blur with hospital appointments as this was only found as an incidental finding on a CT/Colonoscopy for anaemia andt things have moved very quickly.

They are hoping to do the removal by robot and are trying to avoid an open surgery as I am a very large lady and this increases my risks significantly.

thank you for this community.
