Hi Tony
I will be sure to speak to my doctor if the pain continues but after reading your story I think I will stop complaining and just be grateful my cancer has gone for the moment. You have a great attitude which will be a big help to you in your battle. Good luck :-)

Hi sorry I don't have any helpful advice about chemo as I was lucky and didn't need it but I hope it goes well for you and doesn't make you feel too awful.

Hi everyone I had an open partial Nephrectomy in Oct 2012 to remove a renal cell carcinoma . I was very lucky as the tumor was found early, it was still very small and had not spread anywhere. Follow up CT scan and x-ray last week confirmed that I am now cancer free and my urologist said I have a less than 1% chance of recurrence or spread. My surgery went very smoothly with no post op complications but I am concerned that 15 weeks after surgery I still have quite a lot of pain. I had 12 weeks off work and I was very good and didn't exert myself too much but I expected the pain to have settled by now.
Has anyone else had the same surgery and if so how long did it take for your pain to go away completely? I know we are all different and recovery times vary but it would be reassuring to know that others have experienced pain this long after surgery. Thanks for any replies.
Wendy
