As a result of the organ transplant, my previous medications are no longer needed, and I have to switch to new ones. I was already taking a lot of medication, but it looks like I will be taking even more from now on.

 

Since the surgery, my urine production has increased significantly, forcing me to go to the bathroom multiple times during the night. However, it's not just a simple process—I struggle to urinate, and it takes time and effort, which makes me feel like my strength is gradually being drained. Additionally, as of this morning, my weight has dropped by 5.352 kg compared to before the surgery. I haven’t been dieting, but my appetite has decreased, which might be the cause. However, if this continues, I might lose muscle mass as well, so I need to consciously ensure that I consume enough protein.

 

The road to recovery seems long, but I am determined to push through so that one day, I can look back and say, "I remember those tough times." Please support me as I work toward that day.

 

Also, ever since the surgery, I’ve had a sore throat and lost my voice. I was told that it’s due to the breathing tube inserted into my airway during the two surgeries. This has been quite tough as well, but I believe I will recover little by little.
