More Tests....

Brielle had her tests done on Wednesday and did as well as expected of a one year old....actually she was miserable :( We found out she does not have reflux which is a good thing, BUT she has an enlarged ureter and a dilated kidney. (FYI: your ureter is what attaches your kidneys to your bladder). Since her ureter is so big it is like a pool for the fluid to sit in which is how she got her infection and because all the fluid isn't forced into the bladder some is going back into her kidney which is why it is dilated. Our next step is to see a Pediatric Urologist. We have an appointment with him on Tuesday the 21st and he has ordered another test to be done that day before our appointment. I don't know many details about this next test other than it is a lot like the one she just had done and that she will have an IV and catheter. So again we are not looking forward to putting her through this! I will update when I know more. We just ask that you please keep our little angel in your prayers.
