Tough at 100 days clean...really...the fear i felt from ur post is well founded...altho fear doesnt help us too much cos u have no control over this cept picking a good surgeon etc...u will be in my prayers girl!

u will make it thru this..my dad had one kidney and does fine...women have strength that men can not understand..it is different than a mans strength..but women have staying power..when puch comes to shove..women in general are the stronger of the sexes!  sorry all u guys out there!

Planning//like u have/u plan to stay in touch...100 days is probably long enuf to be ok with narcs post-op...it will be the pills they rx u at home that will be ur challenge...do what u need to do to control ur pain tho...give urself a break here?  K?  have hubby hold them but dont let urself suffer to the point u feel like relapsing..controlling pill intake is hard for any addict...much less an addict in pain..sometimes surgery these days can be much less painful than expected..just do the best u can

You have enuf on ur plate with this tumor without worrying bout relapsing too...one day at a time..baby steps...make a plan to cover the addiction inside u..and u will knowwhen it is ruling ur brain vs pain control...it is a different feeling...u will know..and i feel in my bones u will do this..anyone with as much going on as u have who is worrying bout relapse...wants cleandom very badly...and u will have it..cos u want it deep deep down inside

keep us posted  K?

I am sure this is weighing heavy on your mind right now.  It is the fear of the unknown so i would be pulling out my hair waiting for it to be over!!!  That will be great that you will be able to stay in touch with us.  Rollerderby??  Oh good lord, i cant even rollerblade!!!  Seems like a long way to fall and with my hip being shot i could only imagine how many years i would be in traction!!!!!!!!!  LOL

worried 878 I am having what is called a nephrectomy to remove a tumor that has
an 80% chance of cancer I will loose a rib and half a kidney and maybe some lymp nodes in the surgery. Good news is it shouldn't reduce my kidney funtion much.
