Hi, shelly63. I received my liver and a kidney (same time) at Mayo Clinic in Rochester. I can understand your fear because that is exactly what I felt during my pretransplant journey. One of my biggest fears before I was transferred to Mayo, was feeling like I was the only person with my condition, PSC (Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis) , another of those rare conditions. If there is anything that you want to ask me, I am here and I will share from my experience.

If you go to the NASH and cirrhosis of the liver that Colleen shared, you will meet others who are also frightened.- https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/nash-and-cirrhosis-of-the-liver/

One thing that I have learned along the way, is that regardless of the named disease, we all experience the same fears, we share many symptoms, and we all go through the same evaluation testing. The team at Mayo is going to do all that it can to make you comfortable thru the entire process.
Which Mayo Campus is treating you?
