I went to the uro (Dr. E) today. Who ever took my call wrote down that I wanted to talk about Interstim. When the nurse read it she was confused - because I have an interstim. I told her I was talking about Bladder removal. She thought I was talking about Interstim removal. When Dr. E came in, I said I had some questions. #1 How long would I be in the hospital. He says, "I'll take it out and you can go home that day" My eyebrows shot up and I said - to take out my bladder???? Well, we got things straight. He says there's nothing else I can do. The interstim is working but when the bladder is the size of a teacup, it can't do anymore. He said there is no way it will stretch anymore, so... come August, I will be looking at surgery. I can't go any sooner because of other commitments - but if I could go tomorrow I sure would. I've had it. I'm feeling very relieved to have made the decision.
Keep me in prayer.
