Hi!

   I am so glad that your doctor is providing you with those very promising treatments.  If you don't mind me asking, what is your history with Renal Cell Carcinoma?  What stage did you discover this tumor, when was it removed, your age, and which specific type of Renal Cell was it (i.e. clear cell , papillary?

Thanks!

John, Hi!  How are you?   What are the possible treatments for your situation?  Is radiation an option?  I wonder why so many people are developing these RCC's.  Did you ever smoke?
