Whew! My chest x-ray where unremarkable. My kidney levels are stable.
The doctor talked about possibly doing some genetic testing, but at this point, it isn't required. Apparently, new research has shown clusters of genetic mutations for different kinds of cancer. My parent's cancer and mine don't seem to be in a cluster group, but the research is still new, so, at this point in time, no testing is recommended.
In six months, we will do another chest x-ray and a sonogram on my right kidney to make sure there isn't anything "going on" there.
I'm glad I moved my appointment before spring break, so I can just relax next week.
