Renal Cell Carcinoma

[@HalleGirl100]

My mother has lived 7 years after her prognosis of death, she was diagnosed stage four renal cell carcinoma, she used the medication SUDENT or sutent which has prolonged her life, she is only now having trouble since the chemo no longer works and her bilirubin counts have gone off the chart and has caused some brain dis functions and even though it has spread to lungs, hips and other places this medication has worked and kept her alive for a longer time than anticipated. She IS the longest survivor of renal cell in her medical facility in CA. thank you for the information. 9 years today diagnosed, and still LIVING.

I have stage 4 renal clear cell carcinoma. I have had 9 hours altogether of surgery. The surgery DID help. After I healed I have felt great most of the time. My problem is I feel so good usually that I overdo it. I plan to live every day enjoying this wonderful ordinary world. God be with you all.

[@shereehardin5783]

if i had any cancer, esp a 'silent killer' kind, i'd conquer every fear ever like i'd sky dive lol. sad thing is i might have one...:( might have to make a list now. Hope the best for you, sir.

Thank you for posting this. It was very informative and will help my family through some very difficult decisions.

[@swashline]

This is a great lecture and easy to understand. I was diagnosed with RCC 9 years ago and had a radical nephrectomy and was free of cancer until last year. My RCC returned but in my lungs. I started Keytruda and Inlyta in 12/09. After 3 months of treatment my tumors have shrunk by 50%. I am very optimistic and so is my oncologist

[@yassmina6220]

swashline hi I want first to say feel better and get Well soon. And I want to ask about your rcc cause my dad ct scan showed 4 cm solid mass I want to know how they know if if it’s cancer,? What did your scan say?

[@kelliewhyte_85]

@@yassmina6220 to tell if it's malignant or benign, he needs a biopsy. I went through all that when I was 9 and had cancer in both my kidneys. Luckily they could save my left kidney but unfortunately it only works about 60% of what it should.

Unfortunately it came back in my liver at 11 but luckily I have been in remission for a long time now, I am 35 now.

[@Peggyznd]

I was generally pleased with this until 29 minutes into this video, in which the patient is shown to have a large tumor with multiple lung mets. The thought is that this patient might not be offered a nephrectomy as there are too many mets for surgery to benefit the patient. That was my case nearly 12 years ago, with a large mass, 100s of lung mets and at a time with only one FDA approved therapy. That is high dose interleukin, which is given in the hospital, and revs up the immune system in som percentage of patients. Though Dr. Kim mentions other immune therapies, interferon alpha, which was never FDA approved for RCC, though is in combo with Avastin. Re Interleukin 2, stimulating the T-cells, approved at high doses, he mentions that turning on the immune system 'artificially', he calls it an extremely toxic therapy. It is, however, a highly monitored hospital setting, many can benefit. I was 56 at the time, not a 'young' patient, and continue to be well today. Studies show that a health 60-70 years old patient can be safely treated.

Can you please let me Know Why there is no Data for PH levels in Cancer Patients that are first diagnosed, then if Patients that are in Spontaneous Remission the PH levels for people to build a picture that may assist in diet and cure, I have contacted about 7 organisations that do not have any data available and I find this very strange. something that is so simple to do and we do not have this information you have to ask what is being hidden from the public
