My dad as kidney cancer and i need help.??

Hello, i have so much running through my head and thought it might be good to ask and talk to others.

Last month my dad went into hospital with pain in his chest and down his right side. He got discharged but needed to go back for ct scan. Waited 3 weeks for results and on wednesday we recieved a letter saying they have found a mass on his kidney. Thursday we had to go in to see the doctor for them to explain and said it is kidney cancer. Friday had to go back to see another doctor and cancer nurse. They have said they have found cancer in his kidneys and not sure if he as it anywere else he his booked in for a full ct scan. My dad is not in the best of health he as angina arthritist high blood pressure and so on. So having his kidney out his not an option adviced by the doctor no other treatment as been discussed and i feel like they not telling us everything im not sure what will happen next. He got to go back in 3months for another ct scan to see if its growin or spreading.? But what happens in them 3 months just sit and wait.? I should of asked these questions at the appointment but was jn shock i forgot. Also what symptoms do i have to look for as he not had any symptoms ect and what do i do if he does. Im his next.of kin and 25 and so scared im guna lose my dad 

  • Hi there Leah .. so sorry to hear about your dads diagnosis.. it sure is a scary time .. but I think your questions will be answered a lot better then we can .. if you phone the free phone number on here or McMillan free phone, you can speak to a trained cancer nurse .. they can help or guide you how or where to go .. I used them when I was newly diagnosed.. they were wonderful... 

    sending you a big hug ... Chrisie ️
