Hello to you all
It's been 5 months since I had my partial
nephrectomy
, all my scars are healed but it feels like a hot plate inside me sometimes and the pain is unbearable, I've had a word with my doctor and he said it was normal healing and just to take paracetamol, I also had a blood test for the electros and protein

Gross hydronephrosis
I suffer Currently with Gross hydronephrosis and am scheduled for a
nephrectomy
in the coming months. I suffer awful anxiety and I'm really trying to search for someone who understands and would be good enough to offer some reassurance.

Post XGP Right Nephrectomy
Hi. I'm experiencing some weird, painful joint situation since having my right kidney removed. If I sit for any period of time my joints (ankle, knees, feet, hips) all hurt and my movement feels mechanical. My psoas muscle and wall, iliohypogastric and ilioinguinal nerves were involved in the infection

Liver + Kidney Transplant + Nephrectomy is Terrifying
This will include a
nephrectomy
. This surgery is rather terrifying to me as it is so huge. Has anyone had experience with this same surgery?

Could it be cancer or something else to worry about?
I had a right
nephrectomy
in 2014 due to cancerous tumour and gallbladder removed in 2017 due to painfull stones. I have digestive symptoms such as bloating, wind, diarrhea and heartburn. My mother was told that there is a genetic family link to bowel cancer when she had it.

Partial or radical nephrectomy?
My wife has been diagnosed with a 5cm tumour on one of her kidneys. Waiting for a final CT scan of her chest to confirm, but so far, there's no spread to elsewhere in her body. She has been given the option of partial or full removal of the affected kidney. Asked medics for guidance and they said it's

Laparoscopic vs. Open Nephrectomy
The CC offers the laparoscopic procedure while my hometown hospital does the open
nephrectomy
. I know the laparoscopic procedure is less invasive, leaves a smaller scar, and has quicker recovery times. I don't care about scarring, but recovery time is decently important to me.

Kidney ckd 38 and high blood pressure
My father had a
nephrectomy
11 years ago. Since then his kidney function had varied between 38-44gfr. He also suffers from high blood pressure. Can u suggest anything to regulate these numbers, what are the next steps. Can this be reversed or slowed down. Does this stage always progress.

Nephrectomy or Not...that is the question.
Good Morning! I am new here and have PKD. Transplant is scheduled for November 14th. It has been determined that there is enough room to put the new kidney in without removing the old ones. I have chronic pain in my left kidney. It's not debilitating but enough that I reached out to my surgeon

Has anyone had success with Keytruda and then stopped treatment?
During the first year, I had a
nephrectomy
, cystectomy and prostatectomy along with other treatments. After all that, the cancer had metastasized to my lung. I began chemotherapy and after a year, the tumors had diminished, but my remaining kidney was starting to have problems.

Renal Failure Best Nephrologists? Additional patients forum?
Creatinine 5.5. 8 years ago had
nephrectomy
for Renal Cell Carcinoma. But the quick deterioration in the past few weeks is unexplained by the nephrologist, or by ultrasound scan. Now being considered for dialysis at home.

New here
I saw the Urologist a fortnight ago and it was decided that I have a
nephrectomy
in another fortnight time. This is quite a shock to me, as I had an ultrasound whilst deciding what to do prior to the hysterectomy, and the Sonographer told me that I had kidney stones.

Phantom organ pain?
I had a right
nephrectomy
about 26 years ago with no problems. I just had a right
nephrectomy
& autotransplantation about a month ago and I am experiencing left flank pain. It feels the same as it did before surgery.
