Dear Kelly,

In my last check up, my kidneys' scan showed some sort of abcess or tiny tumor. I went to my onc and he said that some people have that and they never know about it in their entired life, because it does not cause any trouble. I told him that I was very afraid that that was metastasis to my kidney because of BC, he said that in his 30-year practice he had never seen metastasis to kidneys because of BC. Have you talked to your onc?
