<s>[INST] Hi, i recently found out that I had Kidney cancer and had my right kidney removed. I am a 45 years old female and don t smoke, don t drink, and I am vegan. I have always been very healthy, active and have a positive attitude. I am 5 6 and weigh 135, so I am not overweight. There is no history of kidney cancer in my family and it is not genetic. Is it possible to get kidney cancer from exposure to asbestos without having lung cancer. (or just lung problems) too? [/INST] It is unlikely that asbestos exposure is responsible for an important increase in kidney cancer risk however high asbestos exposure might entail a small increase in risk for kidney cancer.RegardsDR DE </s>
