In March 2026 i was diagnosed with RCC Renal Cell Carcinoma - Kidney Cancer For many years I've had pain in my right kidney & never thought much of it. I thought the pain was my kidney telling me i need to drink more fluids but after drinking plenty of water the pain never went away, the pain was slowly getting more intense One evening at 9;00pm i went to the toilet for a pee before bed & i started passing blood I made a Dr appointment the next day I had blood tests & a ultrasound done & the nurse operating the ultrasound machine found something & spoke to the Radiologist Then i had a CT scan They found a 12cm growth on my right kidney
