Nephrostomy help

Hi
8 months post op from RC today. My good kidney isn’t working to its true potential. I will be talking to my surgeon this week. Interested in recovery time. How long did you have to have it? Was it difficult to wear? Any insight you can share is greatly appreciated.


  1. Hi I wanted to follow up on your post and see how your appointment went with your surgeon? What did they say as far as your recovery time? We are here for you. Jill, bladdercancer.net team

    1. I have my video call with him next week. The purpose of my post is to see if any of our warriors have gone through this. I would like to have some input before my call.
