Unhappy

Into hospital next week for removal of kidney due to large tumour which has basically stopped the kidney functioning at all
first symptoms only 4 weeks ago, passing blood in urine and terible discomfort for a couple of days when unable to pass water at all.
Prior to that in excellent health.
Have had CT, MRI UV etc - no indication yet as to malignancy or whether cancer has spread
anywhere.

Is there anything I should be taking prior to the operation (arnica 30?) or subsequently
staphysigria to speed up recovery. I shall probably be having chemo as well - at least one dose. I am having a general anaesthetic
and hate how that makes me feel (light-heated and nauseous
Any suggestions for help with any of the above would be gratefully received
