Hi everyone
just an update I am at last on the waiting list to have my kidney removed and then start my dialysis
after being diagnosed in early February it’s been a long wait to get to this point
I am having my pre op next week and surgery expected mid to end August
Although I am relieved to be here at last I am really scared about the the operation and then the dialysis
I hope everyone is doing ok
I can't comment on the operation, but dialysis will be a walk in the park. I've dialysed for 2.5 years now and it's more of an inconvenience than anything else. You'll soon make friends on the unit who will support when needed. We have quite a laugh where I Dialysise. Hope things work out well x Stu
