Okay, Kidney update. The are sending me to a specialist in Dallas who is qualified to do more procedures in dealing with the lesions. In 20% of the cases, a lesion in the kidney is not cancer. They can remove the kidney, but I already have impaired kidney function from years of substance abuse, and while I would not go on dialysis if they took the kidney it is something that may happen down the road. They can freeze the tumor, burn the tumor or do a partial removal of the tissue of the tumor leaving the kidney pretty much intact. Or they can decide to watch it and see if it gets larger. All of that is up to the specialist in Dallas.
