We had her kidney dr appointment today. I was really hoping he'd look at the ultrasound images and say that it wasn't as bad as the original dr told us..that it was just some minor abnormalities and nothing left to do.
Of course that was wishful thinking. He agreed her kidneys are thin and she had extra calcium around them. They took blood and are sending her urine in for testing.
Until we get those test results back (some within a few days, some might not be for weeks), we can't determine how severe the issue is. I had a list of questions but basically none of them can be answered at this point which is frustrating.
Please just keep DD in your thoughts and prayers. On the surface she seems totally fine..never would guess this was going on...so hopefully it's not a huge deal...but it's still scary.

@crene84 , I am so sorry you guys are going through this! I was thinking of you just the other day, in a non creepy way, trying to remember when her appointment was.
Keep your questions, because they will be able to answer them soon. The good thing is that they can do a lot with kidneys and more than likely they can do something before your DD ever feels badly at all!!!
I am keeping you guys in my thoughts and prayers. We are dealing with DH's kidney issues right now too, so I am there with you. If you ever want to talk or vent or need some resources I am here for you!!!
Thanks, I'll keep YH in my prayers too! Ironically, my mom suffers from kidney disease (tho a reminder that DD is adopted!). She almost needed a transplant last year but they were able to get it under control for now with meds. I hate kidneys!
