My surgery is on July 12th and I am getting scared any others out there feeling like this?

@Nana E, what you are feeling is perfectly normal, I am about as informed on This subject as anyone in the Western World and I get colley-wobbles, can I really do this? I've talked the talk so long to all far and near, when it comes time in July for me to walk the walk, what if I stumble and fall? I've been so big and brave, will there be anyone to catch me or have I scared them off with my bluster and bravado? See, even big bad cowgirl get the blues! But like Martin Luther at the Diet if Wurms "Here I stand, I can do ought else". when comes to a bottom line I have made my choice, a good choice and I WILL GO TO AND GET THROUGH IT ALL! ❤, keep me in your,prayers, hope for,my the best and I shall do the same! ,your friend Frustr8

@J San. Thank you. Best wishes on your pending date! I have one more pre op appointment next week and my pre op liquid diet starts on 6/28. Trying to stay positive.

I’m on 7/6!

Day two of the presurgical diet, check!

Surgery is July 16th. My emotions are on a rollercoaster ride. Once I seen the surgeon and got the date. It got real then.

My surgery is on the 12th. My hospital won’t confirm the schedule until the day before. Which sucks a bit. I’d like to have more specifics :/.

But enough of my whining... I’m excited as the date gets closer. I donated a kidney to my sister laparoscopically in 2009 and the surgery will be similar. Gas pains were my only issue last time. My surgeon assures me that she has a technique to minimize that so I going into it without fear.

My biggest concern is adjusting to the restrictions of beverage and food amounts and making sure I’m getting enough. :/

From what I have heard this may be easier. I have always been told kidney surgery is much worse on the donor as opposed to the person receiving.. I am sure for your sister you will always be her perfect angel.??

My surgery is July 2nd. I haven’t figured out to individually respond to post!
