I'm scheduled to have surgery to remove my original fistula at 1:30 Monday afternoon.
I called the doctor's office today to tell them about the pain I've had in my arm for the past couple of days. I was told that I should go to the office immediately. The doctor had surgeries all day, but the nurse that I usually see was very concerned. She paged the doctor and asked him to come to the office to go over the information whenever he had a chance. She thought that something needed to be done very soon. It turns out she was right. I was called later and told that the doctor set up a surgery to remove the original fistula on this coming Monday and that I was to start using the new fistula tomorrow.
Hopefully everything with the new fistula works how it's supposed to work. I'm nervous about the surgery, but very excited to have this crazy thing out of my arm.
Hey there bro! I hear you've been going through some crappy ordeals lately! I'm not to familiar with kidney stuff, but I'm going to do something research and familiarize myself a little more about what you're dealing with....I usually stick with the liver, small int, colon(the couple inches I have left! Lol), lymph node, and joints stuff. I'm always learning something new about what I'm going through myself, feel like I'm a doctor sometimes because I've learned so much over the years! Lol! I'm sure you know exactly where I'm coming from too!!
