ive been on hd for 2 months with a perma cath.
Now they want to put in a fistula.I had vein mapping earlier this week and
I have an appointment with a surgeon next week.
I have a bad feeling about this...
The timing of it(12/16). Its the holiday season during winter driving conditions in wisconsin.
I live alone and drive myself to devita. My sister will try to get a day off work
at her retail job to take me to the surgery. Bad time to get off work in retail.
Then I'm not sure if i will be a safe driver, in bad weather/icy roads, to devta.
Navigating with a sore arm. And carrying my bag with blanket into devita.
I already use a cane for another health issue. I'm debating with myself should I call
the nephrologist to ask if this can be delayed until after winter. Should I go to the
appointment with the surgeon and delay there?. During this holiday season with a pandemic
and winter driving conditions is just asking for failure. Does this have to be done now?
