I noticed today that my stitch had came out of my catheter and that the catheter was out about a inch, so I pointed it out when I went into dialysis and they said they were calling my Dr. and they would try to run me in the mean time, well about 15 minutes into the treatment I felt wet and sticky, I looked down and saw blood everywhere, so the pulled my catheter the rest of the way out and scheduled me for surgery at 8am I have to be there at 6:30. So early to bed for me tonight.

Also have any of you heard of matching donors.com? If so what are your opinions about it? I just saw a news cast about it tonight, and was wondering.

Gee, devlinswife, I'm sorry.  Hope everything went well, and you're home resting comfortably. 

I haven't heard anything about matchingdonors.com, sorry.  Someone else here may have, though.

Surgery went well, but they decided to fix my fistula today, the Dr. wanted to do it yesterday, but the nurses wouldn't let him, cause he had people waiting on him, so now I have to go in in a hour and a half to have that done, I'm scared after having the surgery yesterday and not being out to sleep for it. That sucks!! Thanks for all the encouragement!!

OK so I got there today and had to wait over 4 hours to even get in cause they had a emergency surgery to do. Then the Dr. decides that I have way to much work to do on my fistula, so I have to go back in on Friday and have a stint put in my fistula. So now my Mom has had to miss 3 days work this week and I feel extremely guilty over that.

Sorry the day didn't go as planned, but I am glad you are ok and I know you will be fine on Friday too. I know how you feel about the "guilt" factor I feel really guilty sometimes by the things my wife has to put up with.  :cuddle;
