How is recovery after kidney cancer surgery at 75 years old?
Community Member
8 days agoI am a week and 2 days out. God sent me to a wonderful doctor who removed a 5.5cm cancer off my kidney. I am sore but that will fade. I am 75 yrs old and it has not been easy. But everyday is a blessing.

7 days agoRecovery from kidney cancer surgery can vary greatly between individuals, especially with age being a factor in healing time. It sounds like you're taking it day by day and maintaining a positive outlook, which can be so important during the healing process. Many people find that soreness and discomfort gradually improve over the weeks following surgery, though everyone's timeline is different. How has your energy level been since the procedure, and have you been able to get support at home during your recovery?
