I am the patient. Just want to alert my caregivers what may be in store.

So basically you had the drain for 30 days. I didnt know this.

No. What I meant was that I don’t remember the exact length of time that I had them, however when my husband drove us home, I had no drains.
You will be able to manage them yourself. I did not need any help from my husband/ caregiver for that.

I actually had a liver and kidney at same time. So I don’t know if my drains were for liver or kidney or both! Your pre transplant nurse could be more specific for you.
I’ll be here if you have any more questions.
