That is a transplant surgery question but stay on your medicines after the surgery . Bad outcomes I see in the hospital are from organ rejection with medication noncompliance or infections. Most people you would never know had one-out living good lives.
Depends on whether you are the donor or the recipient.Recipients are using walking in 1-2 days.Donors are walking at 3-4 days.No one lifts more than 10 lbs for 6 weeks.
