History Of Cervical Cancer. Now Have Hiatal Hernia. Pain In Kidney Area. Help

My 47 year old daughter had cancer of the cervix with a tumor that grew into 1 kidney. She was just told a couple of months ago she is cancer free. Now she has a hiatel hernea and giving her a lot of pain. She is also experiencing pain in the area of her good kidney. She has an appointment on Tues. with her GYN oncologist and do you think he will be able to order the tests she might need. It is at a cancer hospital and I don't think they handle the hernia problems.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum .
Hiatus hernia is not a life threatening disease , so don't bother about that.
The main concern is pain in the area of good kidney.
Pain in the stomach ( hiatus hernia ) may be due tension ( stress ) produced hyper acidity , so after consultation with physician get in antacid ( with oxetacain ) + rebaprazole.
Since you haven'e mentioned the type of tumor in cervix ( benign or malignant).
So search for any secondaries ( spreading of cancer in other parts of body beside main center ( cervix)) in other parts as kidney , lungs, liver.
Hope I have replied your query.
Good luck for your daughter , god bless her.
