 | HELLO CHULAGARZA,
MY 18 YR OLD DAUGHTER SPENT HER FIRST YEAR OF LIFE WITH A UTI LIKE EVERY MONTH OR SO, IT WOULD CLEAR UP WITH THE ANTIBIOTICS AND ONE MONTH LATER THE SAME THING AT HER FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY SHE CONVULSED FROM A HIGH FEVER DUE TO A UTI AND THATS WHEN WE SWITCHED PEDS (THE FIRST ONE JUST SAID THIS IS USUAL IN GIRLS) OUR NEW PED SENT US TO UROLYGIST WHICH WITH A MRI (I BELIEVE IT WAS, ITS BEEN A LONG TIME) DISCOVERED THAT THE TUBE
(EXCUSE MY MEDICAL TERMS)THAT BRINGS DOWN THE URINE FROM HER UTIRUS HAD NOT FULLY DEVELOPED WHEN BORN AND FOR THIS REASON DID NOT COMPLETLY CLOSE AFTER THE URINE WAS BROUGHT DOWN AND SOME WOULD LEAK BACK UP WHICH WOULD GIVE HERE THESE UTI'S. WE WHERE TOLD THAT IF THIS WAS DISCOVERED AT AN EARLY STAGE IT COULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BY AN ANTIBIOTIC TREATMENT, BUT SINCE SHE WENT ON SO LONG AND THE DAMAGE WAS GREATER SHE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A OPERATION TO CORRECT ALL THE DAMAGE.
MAKING A LONG STORY SHORT THANK GOD THE OPERATION WAS A SUCCESS, ALTHOUGH IT WAS VERY HARD FOR ME TO SEE MY BABY GO THROUGH SO MUCH AT SUCH A TENDER AGE. SHE WAS ON ANTIBIOTICS FOR 1 YEAR AFTER THE OPERATION AND 18 YEARS LATER IN PERFECT CONDITION.
HOPEFULLY IN YOUR CASE YOUR SON HAS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE CORRECTED WITHOUT SURGERY, BUT WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS ALWAYS GET THAT SECOND OPINION AND IF THAT DOESN'T SATISFY YOU GET A THIRD, IF I WOULD HAVE DONE THIS MY DAUGHTER WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO HAVE THAT SURGERY.
GOOD LUCK,
GOD BLESS |
