(71,589 posts)... that was just a few days before Christmas along with a second bag. That was depressing. No one is sure what the 'bug' is or even wear exactly it's hiding.
When they took my Bladder, they everything from and including my prostate to both kidneys. They replaced the ureter with sections from my colon. When he opened to the colon he realized there wasn't as much as he thought, so they stopped surgery for over an hour to figure out how Dr Warrior had done her surgery, totally freaking my wife out because of how long it was taking. A thought is that maybe if he could have harvested a few more inches for more slack. The connection at the kidney had a lot scar tissue that was slowing down that kidney's draining, but that it was still at 70% production and took about 15 minutes longer to drain. That little blockage is where they thought the bacteria might be holding out.
The big problem with the colon-ureter is colons have no pain sense, so earlier detection is takes longer before there are are clear symptoms.
This is something that I know one of my Muslim women doctors will solve once I get the American male urologists out of the way.
This something I taught my sales reps: don't ask for the man in charge, talk to the woman who knows what's going on. I will lick this thing yet.
