- What is a biopsy like? I know when I was first diagnosed I was anxious & worried about my biopsy. I was worried about pain, the idea of cancer or tumor seeding from the biopsy (biopsy seeding) which turned out to be something I didn’t need to worry about.
So I wanted to share a bit a bit about my experience with a both a kidney & liver biopsy. I also touch on a complication I had during my biopsy to help provide insight on what happens if things don’t always go according to plan.

Katie, as a former cancer patient, I would have given anything to have someone like you.
Keep the videos as long as needed to deliver your information. This is knowledge and experience, not entertainment. You are doing a wonderful service for kidney cancer patients. There are not that many cases, so except for Dr. Google, patients have no one with first hand experience with all the questions they have.
Doctors don’t really tell about invasive tests, saying it’s a bit uncomfortable, when it is terrible. Thank you and sending positive vibes to you to get into remission.
Your videos are perfect. Don’t change a thing. Hugs to you young lady. You will never know how you have educated and helped with the anxiety of other victims and their families. Prayers to you and your husband.
My mother underwent a partial nephrectomy a decade ago to remove a stage II tumor. The procedure lasted approximately five hours, and remarkably, she was discharged after just one night in the hospital. Since then, she has diligently undergone multiple follow-up tests, all of which have shown no signs of cancer recurrence. She has been in remission for a decade now, a testament to her strength and the effectiveness of her treatment. Despite the seriousness of her diagnosis, she never experienced significant pain post-surgery. In fact, her cancer was discovered incidentally when she went to the ER for abdominal pain. My mother considers herself fortunate, and rightfully so. Today, she is cancer-free and enjoying her retirement to the fullest.
Monday morning quarterback. WishI had a biopsy prior to surgery. It might have saved me from having a radical nephrectomy. Thanks for your courage and information. We all have our unique journeys. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you so much for making these videos. So much info I need that they don’t tell you. They found a tumor on my right kidney a few days ago doing a CT For another reason. I go in for my MRI tomorrow.
Good to hear your from my home state. Lived most my life around St George and Manti.
I’m in Idaho now.
Thank you.
God bless
You’re doing great, loving the long videos! You’re absolutely beautiful and so strong! I really admire your strength 💖💖 so glad I found your channel !
Hi Katie - Firstly and most importantly, I am so thankful that you made it through such a scary experience. I am filled with gratitude. With how horrid you were feeling, it was a blessing that you kept telling the Nurses you weren't feeling well and never gave up until you were heard. I can only imagine how much you were straggling. I am in awe that you were able to tell the doctor about the pain in your shoulder. You were so brave throughout a scary and uncertain moment. Bravo to you! My heart is filled with compassion for all you endured. Thank you for taking the time to share your different biopsies. I have no doubt you have brought reassurance to others that may have been riddled with anxiety and fear. So thoughtful of you. You are a beautiful soul with a tender and kind heart. Hugs and love from Canada. P.s. You are doing great with your videos. This is your story to share! 🦋👼🕯✨️🙏💙
You are way more helpful than you know. We share a lot of symptoms and experiences in common.
P.s. Your videos are not too long.. you explain things so clearly. Looking forward to learning more.. thanks. 🙂✝️💜
Listening to your experiences your stories you sounds make it sound so comforting and everybody's different but I just feel like in my journey of the next few months I find out what could be wrong with me that I could just go through anything because of the knowledge I've learned from you and appreciate it so much because it's just it's beautiful when you don't know where you're going through but you have somebody that's talk you through it and it's been there it's so much I think I could just tackle anything go through anything with God's helping the knowledge I've learned from you I appreciate
Thank you for sharing
It’s the waiting that’s the absolute worst x
Your doing great! I think all the experiences that you are going through are very beneficial to others that are starting to go though the same thing
Thank you so much, Katie. ☺️
You’re doing great Katie! This is a great length!
Thanks for your honesty
Great information!
My Urologist said that a biopsy is pointless. But I end up having a partial kidney removed. Long story short it turned out to be a rare form of cancer. The size was about 2.4 cm thankfully it’s gone. I’m glad you’re doing ok.
Chemo? Was it bad?
@@danielleg2616 Didn’t need Chemo it did not spread. It was caught very early.
So glad to read that your surgery was a success! Thankful that you didn't need chemo. I hope you are doing as well as possible since you posted this. Healing hugs from Canada. 🦋👼🕯✨️🙏💙
@@bohochic2459 So far so good. I have to one more Surgery to remove the cyst from the other Kidney.

Thank you for the information. I am just beginning the process and have a biopsy coming up soon.
I’m a new subscriber to your channel.. Very incredible all that you’ve been through.. I actually got teary when you talked.. My sister died in 1994 of stomach cancer and I’ve just been interested in cancer and all it entails ever since. I was 24 when she died and had no clue about cancer and how it works.. Your amazing and I’m excited to be allowed in on your very personal journey. Thanks for sharing with us!! 🤗💛💛💛
Thanks for explaining the biopsy process. I just found out I have Renal Cell Carcinoma Stage 3 and I have two cells in my left Kidney. My Dr. said they may take the whole Kidney out. And it is Scary.
Thank You
I remember getting a broncocscopy and having midazolam conscious sedation so strange your awake but don’t remember it rly rly odd not as bad as the anxiety amazing what medicine is like now x
Thanks Kat for these videos and I admire your spirit!
Did the cancer cell sepreaded after the biopsy and the bleeding that followed?
Thank you I am so scared already had one kidney biopsy but they didn’t get enough cells so I have to go back for the needle biopsy
Sending you the best and hoping this one goes smoothly! Did they recently find a kidney mass?
