transplant

[Guest guest]

I had a liver transplant in 1998, befor the transplant its very hard,

cause you get sicker, weak, after the transplant for the 1st. mth..

its very hard, you don't know how to deal with it, but the transplant

team exceptinally understanding, don't be shy to ask questions, you

are very weak, and unable to do much, I was lucky,stayed in hospital 2

wks, another 2 wks,close to hospital, when at home you cannot do much

you sleep most of the time, have blood test every wks, then 2 wks.to

and once a mth, for the rest of your life, that's easy, it takes a

least 1yrs, to be back to normal, as the mths go by, it get easier, I

did not have lots of pain, some people do, but it is worth it, for me

10yrs. next year, I get sick, but you can deal with it, every year

goes by and you tell yourself, I AM HERE, that is a great feelings,

if you have more questions, let me know,

take care Pete
