Is it safe to go scuber diving after having a kidney removed with cancer 3 years ago?

ONLY your doctor/specialist can answer this important question.

Call the doc immediately and talk to the nurse in the office, and give them the question.

I would think that it's not safe, but I'm not a doctor. Renal failure is just that....and do you really want to take a chance....there are no hospitals in the general area where you go diving...YIKES!

Please don't push your luck, and check with your specialist before you do any scuba diving!

why not? If you are better and you have no limitations, then go for it.

There should be no problem. You should always ask a professional or ask the scuba instructor, they would know more. My nieces friend is 16 and she had cancer on her kidneys had one removed and does everything, including scuba diving, with no problems...Good luck

Yep no problem.... my mate is ex SBS ( one lung / one kidney ) and still has a PADY Licence to teach.!... OK this bloke is one Hard sod ( My old Sgt Royal Marines ).....Just get a GP to give you a check-up fist ..
hope this helps.

There's no reason why not as it doesn't affect your physical abilities. As long as the wound has healed sufficiently so there's no risk of infection.

You would have too ask your doctor although i would say no! I think swimming without a full full recovery is dangerous if you have lost an organ like that

why not? if you do not have aditional heatth problems you can do anything you like

u might want to ask ur doctor

Scuba Diving poses various health issues primarily focusing on cardiovascular and respiratory concerns.

Kidney function is one consideration for scuba diving. Immersion in water may temporarily increase urine production in a reflex called immersion enuresis. The remaining kidney must be sufficiently healthy to handle this stress. Renal insufficiency is a risk that must be evaluated by a physician.

A standard medical statement must be completed before enrolling in scuba training. http://www.padi.com/english/common/cours... is a link to such a form with information for the physician to consider in evaluating your suitablity to dive.

Suitability for scuba diving is best evaluated by a physician trained in hyperbaric medicine.

It's "scuba", not "scuber". Did you have your brain removed as well you thick ****?
