Radical Nephrectomy Imminent

Hi @tinyw

I was overweight when I had my nephrectomy 16 years ago but the surgeon said wasn't unfit n did it anyway.

Think it's natural to b worried about any op, so please try n calm yourself n just relax n " go with the flow".Easier said than done, I know!

Do let us know how the op goes and what your treatment plan is post-op. You will feel better once you know what the future holds re treatnent.

Do you have an op date yet?

Best wishes,

Sue

Hi, I am waiting too. I have lupus, a complex clotting disorderAPS, Adrenal Insufficiency and Steroid induced diabetes.  ( Love the way they call them co morbidities..very cheering).  It sounds awful written down but tbe surgeon seems relatively confident.   How have you been today?  I have been ill for months and get depressed and angry quite often. There have been some big blunders in my care and although tbey are sorted now I can't switch off the feelings.   Are you sleeping okay? 

Welcome to chat any time. 

Hopefully in a frw werks we will be laughing at this! 

xx Fed up person.
