Post by: KR Cincy on March 24, 2008, 05:18:42 PM: Good luck! I've got a fistula and I remember feeling everything you are...and until you get through it, you will be nervous, but you will get through it!

Post by: Slywalker on March 24, 2008, 05:26:00 PM: Hi Big-H - here's to a successful surgery for the catheter and fistula. Are you having both surgeries together? At any rate - I'm sure there will be no problems.

Take care and keep us posted.

I had my fistula placed on Halloween!
