my mom has stage 4 renal cell carncinoma. diagnosed 4 years ago. metastasized to lungs, lymph nodes, bones, and brain. she has been off chemo for 3 weeks, on hospice. she developed pnuemonia today. they have her on oxygen and antibiotics. PLEASE BE HONEST, What can i really expect?
The 5-year survival rate for stage 4 renal cell carcinoma is only 8%. The aim of treatment now should be basic supportive care. Regards Chat Doctor.
