I a so sorry for not answering sooner, but I totally forgot about this site and then went for surgery May 6. I was in the hospital for one week and off of work 3 months. I have been back to work now since Aug 4 and happy and thankfull to say,,,, doing great. The new-bladder is fantastic, it was a tough 3 months after the surgery, but that is expected.
I have the "new" bladder trained that I rarely have any leakage and even forget I have one and it has been only 5 months.
I feel great, going for blood work and a cat scan Dec 2 and praying all will be fine.
Again thank you.
