I am suppse to have a test where I have to drink something on tuesday then if that is abnormal I go to urologist what about this do I need to know and should I be worried? ketha Fri, 07 Mar 2008 00:00:00 GMT Ketha, Same symptoms I had in 97 minus the leg pain. Sounds like a tumor. Hope not, but if it is it can be removed. I had my left kidney removed Mar. 97 w/no complications. Make sure your Dr. is experienced with RCC  (RenalCellCarcinoma ). I will keep you in my prayers  Good Luck jorolo1 Sat, 08 Mar 2008 00:00:00 GMT
