@threerrr3 I had my kidney transplant 10 mos ago with my daughter as donor. The only thing I used at the hospital from home was my phone and a bag with toiletries. We rented a home for me, my daughter and the family that were caretaking. I brought comfortable pj’s and loose pants. You’ll have a support to wear for your abdomen. It took me about 7 weeks for the abdominal pain to leave when I was on my feet, walking etc. I didn’t wear the support for that long, though. Feel free to call your coordinator anytime with questions. My daughter and I did. Wishing you a good recovery. 🙏🏻

Thank you so much 😊 glad you are doing good and everything worked out .. I was also wondering when did you go back to work ? I really have no idea how long realistically I’ll be off ? I work a physical job and have to be able to lift 60 lbs
So just wondering if anyone can say like 4 or 6 months ? Thanks again for the reply ❤️
