Give me a break!

I had the post rib removal scans on July 21st. Much to my surprise there is a visible lesion about 2cm in the renal bed area in towards the spine but not at the spine. The doctor said it was visible back in April but very subtle and easily missed.
So now I wait for the surgeon to return to work so he can offer his opinion as to whether or not surgery is possible. I am interested in something minimally invasive like RFA or Cryoablation. Otherwise I will be looking at doing IL2 in the hospital. It's the only real shot at a lasting remission.
I can't seem to catch a break...but it could be worse.
