I went in for my cat scan today of my left kidney. There wasn't any change. The cyst/tumor hasn't grown!!!!!!! They are going to keep checking it every 3 months. My doctor (urologist)said it is so small they can't even biopsy it because they probably couldn't even find it....same thing for trying to freeze it. He said if I want it removed the only thing they can do is remove part of my kidney. I don't want that done if I don't have to. He agreed....he thinks we should jus****ch it closely and go from there. I am okay with that. Today my medical doctor took me off of my Diovan (blood pressure medication) and I am no longer on Levsin (water retention medication) either. If I have problems with swelling I can go back to the medication. I have to take my BP everyday for two weeks and then call in with the results. I am sooooooo happppppyyyyy!!!! My BP has been really low lately....I was getting concerned! Thank you all for being here for me. Your kindness, thoughfulness and caring means the world to me!! Hugs connie d
