The results of a renal ultrasound showed something that was probably normal but could be a tumor. A cat scan was ordered to determine for sure if a tumor is present. If it is a tumor, what treatment would come next?

bebop_music - Are the kidney tumors related to diabetes? Diabetes runs strong in this family.

JesusIsTheAnswer - I'm asking a medical question in a medical forum. Of course I want a medical answer. If I wanted a spritual answer I would have posted in R&S. You're well meaning but obnoxious.

Much depends on the size and possible malignancy of the tumor, and whether it is only inside the kidney, or has spread to surrounding organs.
Possible treatments:
a) Not needed
b) Surgery (just remove the tumor)
c) Surgery (you can live with only 1 kidney)
d) radiation
e) chemotherapy
f) Combinations of the above

I couldn't just sit around and do nothing like my doctors suggested.
They didn't want me to do anything or to take herbs or herbal remedies, but I had to try something - they just wanted me to do dialysis!
This program allowed me to take control of my health. I went from Stage 4 to Stage 3 kidney disease.
It was easy to do and my BUN, creatinine and anemia are all in better ranges.

a biopsy would be next.
a needle goes in and takes a section of the mass (aka tumor), which is then examined under a microscope to see what it is.
the chances of it being cancer are VERY slim, as they NEVER say 'it's probably nothing' unless they are super sure that is the case.
