I am having a partial nephrectomy on Thursday. It seems like a long journey from the CT colonoscopy and then two further CT scans to identify the kidney masses. The waits between the appointments seem so long. My phone has been on ‘ring’ all the time. I’ve had a cancelled appointment and an appointment privately with the wrong consultant.
Im feeling apprehensive but I feel as prepared as I can be. I am singing with one of my choirs on Tuesday and I also have reflexology on Tuesday. I am still waiting to hear from haematology about my bone foci.
Good luck for tomorrow. Sending courage, strength and best wishes.

Thank you. Feeling quite calm at the moment and wondering whether to take my iPod.I have backed it up.
Sounds like a good idea. You may want to tune out of the goings on and music, audio books and podcasts are good distractions.
