I am three days post kidney removal. Had surgery Friday the twelfth, discharged from hospital on Saturday the 13th. Any questions? Take good notes and do exactly what they say.

Hi @nivek, I wish you the best of luck with surgery next week. I can understand your seeking tips for what to expect after surgery. @dougr19 @koke @2ndjourney @lbrockme @drmarci @buckeyeveteran and others, how was recovery from surgery for you? What tips might you have for Nivek? What do you wish you had known?

@nivek, what type of surgery will you be having? Complete or partial nephrectomy?Laparoscopic, robotic surgery?
