Good news! Much to my elation, today I finally, FINALLY!!!, got to talk face to face with the doctor who is going to handle my case. The doctors have finally decided what type of cancer I actually have; they may have said what it was but unfortunately my memory is like a sieve and I don't remember except it's the same type that I had in 2009 which forced the total removal of my right kidney. They checked me twice yearly for the first 3 years after that and then yearly for 2 and all was clear. Unfortunately it's spread this time and is classified as a grade 4 cancer...the worst rating.
He will commence an "immunololgical" treatment in two days and he's optimistic that he can add 3 - 4 years to my life if all goes well.
Wish me luck!
