Neuro - Behcet's Basilar Artery blockage?
( after clearance from cancer full, in one month) I was diagnosed with kidney cancer almost two years ago and have just got through major
nephrectomy
surgery and the symptoms seem worst than ever. Has any one has anything similar? Thank you!

It's been a while....
We hired the absolute best doctor we could find to do a laparoscopic partial
nephrectomy
with the DiVinci robot, a 5 hour surgery in one if the most famous cancer institutes in the world. If it were only that simple.

No nephrectomy!
Hello, After a roller-coaster few weeks, the decision was made to leave my transplant in situ for now. The surgeon felt that my doubts about the operation and the fact that my kidney was relatively stable at the moment means that I can carry on as I am. Just need careful monitoring and hope I avoid infections

Help. Advice desperately needed.
The
nephrectomy
(graft removal) is in 6 days and I feel so torn. Kidney staff and doctors say the choice is mine... and warn against the possibility of a future infection.

November 4, 2008 - Eight Years Ago Today
[i]The next day, November 5, was the date of my "partial
nephrectomy
". That is what they call removing part of a kidney. In my case, I was having part of my left kidney removed because my doctors discovered cancer there. [/i] This is when my dance with "[i]The Beast[/i]" began.

Now up to 400mcg Thyroxine, T4 fallen again.
My past medical history included hypertension and kidney cancer (radical
nephrectomy
, all clear for 6 years). My GP is phoning me at some point today and I'm unsure what I should ask.

( Kidney removal due to tumour) was probably to route cause as this operation was either responsible for damaging my Adrenal gland or the complete removal of it.. this in turn slowly had the detrimental and irreversible

Candestartan
My BP was extremely high prior to the
nephrectomy
but went down afterwards. It has again got high and 3 months ago I was put on 16 mg of Candestartan, problems with back pain but most worrying is a reduced urine flow & (sorry folks! ) even when I think my bladder is empty I dribble.

Why does my urine smell so foul?
Hi all, I had a right
nephrectomy
2 months ago due to CCRC. I noticed prior to operation my urine was smelling horribly, but I thought it was the cancer. I still have the same smell now! I only take Telmisartan for BP and nothing else. Has anyone else experienced the same problem? Thank you :)
