Surgery Thursday morning the 28th was going to be released Friday afternoon but I couldn't pee so they kept me til Saturday. Very little pain, was walking 3 hours after surgery. I couldn't be happier.
I have had 7 surgeries in the last 5 years. Mostly abdominal hernia repairs. The kidney shutdown, they have no idea why it happened, blood clot was from a pic line in my arm. Other than my weight I am fine. I just have a feeling of impending doom. All my other surgeries I was ok with, even looked forward to them.
The last time I had surgery, 5/2011, my kidneys failed and I developed a blood clot in my right arm. I am so scared I am not going to make it and can't talk to my wife or kids I don't want to get them upset. I need the surgery but am just worried. It's Thursday the 28th.
