My brother was having no pain, he is heathly, he woke up Wed. morning and when he went to the bathroom was bleeding. Later in the day he had severe pain in his back and side, he went to the bathroom and passed a large clot, the pain went away. This happened twice that day. He went to the emergency room and they did a cat scan and found he had a mass on his kidney it was large. They sent him to a doctor in Provo, Utah close to his home and the doctor told him he needed surgery and that it didn’t look good. What does that mean does not look good. How does he know it’s cancer? Why did he tell him that there was no way to treat the cancer? How does he get better information and a better examination? We live not far from the Huntsman Cancer Ins. and my brother in law work at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. Please Please someone help with these questions. I would be truly greatful.
