I had a kidney transplant from my dad, 9 years ago when I was 15. Never had any episodes of rejection or serious problems other than Urine infections 3+years ago & My kidney consultant has gave the ok. The op was booked for the 4th of November but I got a UTI so it was re arranged for the 24th of November. the nurse rang me today and said the anesthetist has decided it's not worth the risk so it may be cancelled again! Have any other transplant patients had this surgery or can I go elsewhere?

Hello. Thank you for your inquiry and congratulations on your surgery!
It is important to have an in-person medical assessment regarding this issue as it is difficult to determine virtually. Continue to update your doctor in the matter and follow their post-op protocol.

Thank you for your question. During your consultation I like to find out your goals (I.e. What cup size you would like to be). It's important to measure the width of your breast to determine which implant you need. I like to use breast sizers that are made specifically to try out before surgery....
Should be anticipated but if some of your milk ducts were injured during your procedure, your ability to breast feed is diminished. Also realize that women who have not had surgery are unable to breast feed and that could also happen here.
