I found out about my kidney cancer when I had an ultrasound of the abdomen for digestive issues. That test is great bc you can find out about things you never thought possible bf time and be able to do something about it. And the test is not expensive. I fully recommend it.

Janet Green few days ago my mother get diagnosed that she got kidney cancer and metastasic to lung ( small 15mm) , my mother only has 1 kidney, so i am so much anxious, there hasnt sure how bad it is, and which stage is she exactly in, as i research it might be in stage 3 and early in stage 4.
I am from vietnam, vietnam is not good health services and excellent doctor, all infomation i find out on english website, the vietnamese doctor dont say anything else he just said "your mothet got kidney cancer and it metastasic to lung , she has to be in hospital for treatment," that's it he didnt say survival rate, didnt say which stage my mother is, didnt say how big tumor in kidney, and didnt say what is kidney cancer,.... i feel disappointed in the way vietnamese doctor dont want to share information with patient 😰
