I posted awhile back that I had been turned down as a donor due to results of glo-fil tests. The first one was just a tad out of the required thresholds, so I tested again & that one was worse. I had talked to my coordinator, and it sounded like it was going to be a no go. She presented my info to the transplant team, then had me stay off of Advil/Motrin for a month, then I repeated the test for yet a third time, and passed with flying colors. Surgery was scheduled for Feb 19, but was delayed due to complications with the recipient. New date was March 26, but the doctor wanted him to wait 2 more weeks. My coordinator called to schedule, but the first available date is April 23. My post surgery care giver HAS to be out of town one week after my surgery. So I am wondering if I should wait til he is back, or will I be ok on my own after a week? I never has any kind of surgery before so I don't know what to expect. The recipient is kind of pushing for the earlier date as he now has to go to the hospital for dialysis 3 times a week, 4 hours at a time. I understand from reading here that I need to keep my well being first. Thanks for any advice & words of wisdom you can give.
