Author Kidney removal question

In 2002 I had a kidney removed as the doctors said that the scans showed
a cyst or tumor about the size of a quarter on the right one.

The operation was on Tues, I came home Fri. And on Monday the Doc calls
and said everything was fine and it wasn't cancer.

Six months later I try to change insurance and find that the Hospital
put down it was cancer.

One year and a half later I go for a check up and no problems were found.

BUT, the main problems I have related to the operation are these.

1: I still have a pain in the are like a tooth ache all the time. It
never goes away. When I went for my 1 1/2 year check up the doctor said
I had a muscle sore and to put heat on it.

2: Ever since the operation, both feet from the toes back to the middle
of my feet, in that are feels like they are asleep or numb.

WHY?

I have no idea.

If I were in your shoes, I would keep visiting practioners/specialists
until I got the answers I wanted.
