Turns out that I have cancer, muscle invasive in my Kidney and a 9cm mass in my Bladder, both most likely primaries and neither metastatic. The bladder one has been removed but there's a high chance of recurrence.  I'll have Chemo and if my bladder responds well Radio therapy and chemo as a combined treatment with my kidney being removed at some point. All pretty uncertain but at least things are being done.
This is very, very late. But for what it's worth, I'm sorry to hear about your cancer. I hope the treatments have been succesful.

Thanks folks, just noticed I said the kidney cancer is muscle invasive, it's not I meant to say that the bladder cancer was muscle invasive. 

There's no sign of regrown in my bladder after Chemo so I'm all set for radiotherapy in the next few weeks then at some point my kidney needs to come out. Chemo was a bit rough, mainly because my veins got harder to find as the treatment progressed.

Still alive and making positive progress  :D

Good to hear it. Keep us posted.
All right, I've been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man whose gonna burn your house down – with the lemons! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!
