MY HUSBAND HAD CANCER IN HIS KIDNEY AND IT WAS REMOVED.  HE NOW LYMPHATIC INVASTION.  HE HAD A PET SCAN THAT DID NOT SHOW A TUMOR.  THEY DO NOT WANT TO GIVE HIM CHEMO BECAUSE HIS OTHER KIDNEY FUNCTION IS 1.77 AND CHEMO COULD AFFECT HIS KIDNEY THEY WANT HIM TO WAIT 3 MONTHS AND HAVE A CAT SCAN.  WHAT SHOULD HE DO?
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for the query. If there is no sign of tumor spreading at this point then is would be better to delay chemo and preserve other kidneys function, so you should follow doctors advices. Even if there is tumor relays, few months without chemo shouldn't cause some changes in prognosis. Wish you good health. Regards
