Good luck to you, and hope that the liver transplant is working for you. I had a friend that had a liver transplant and thing work great for them. I am sure your doctor will help you with this. If the bladder is causing infections you will need to do something with this. This will really get the immune system further supressed. Talk to your doctor about what you can do to get your imune system up a little before the sugery. And to ask what is the scary part of having the surgery or the recovery.

Surgery can be scarey. Has your doctor told you what can happen if you don't have the surgery?
