Hey Everybody
Surgery for the placement of the Nephrostomy tube went very well. Much more time for the set-up, explanation,internal stress and post op instruction than the actual 5-minute (no exaggeration) surgery. Resting and healing now and there is some soreness but at quick take this was fairly routine as surgery can be. Will return next week in an attempt to have an internal stint placed in the right kidney and will remove external tube. And for those that are interested I was awake during the procedure but glided along nicely on a light dose of fentanyl. Kidney area sore but if draining properly, and it looks like it is, should be able to sleep longer as the bathroom breaks will be much less and in a day or two soreness will reside.
So, there you have it. A bit short and sweet and now as my good friend Tylenol and I have a meet up scheduled in minute.
Have an awesome weekend all and thank you again for your prayers and thoughts. Hopefully I will have another positive surgery review next week!!
