Hi all just wanted to say hi , I am due to have my kidney removed on the 14th November and only recently joined the forum ! So thought I’d. Say hi
I detect from the wee that you maybe in sunny Scotland ? I didn’t or hadn’t had to go through all that god bless , but I am fine in myself no pain and no other symptoms to talk of ! The size of the tumour means it is coming out and I am pleased that they have been able to organise everything so quickly. Good luck to your family for a speedy full recovery
Hi Milli, hope all goes well for you on the 14th, I had my op on the 24th and am feeling pretty good now, little to no pain, able to move ok, bowels etc back to normal, all in all aside from the initial couple of days where you will find yourself rolling around like a stranded turtle when you try and get up its been pretty good. I would also suggest having a chair with arms by your bed so you can use it to pull yourself up with. Take care Hels x
