Update on Mr. Angus

We found out from our wonderful Pediatrician Dr. Hemphill, that Angus has one kidney with II reflux and III reflux, which is mild and moderate. Angus is scheduled to go the the Pediatric Urologist on August 24th, but in the mean time they are treating him with a antibiotic to prevent him from getting a urinary tract infection. He most likely will be on this medicine for a year and then be retested. It should clear up by itself within the year. To us that is good news! We were very scared of the unknown and we are glad that it won't require surgery. Thanks to everyone for their kind words and thoughts. It really helped me relieve stress by posting about Angus' condition and to see that everyone was thinking about him. We will let you know how everything goes at the Uroligist next month.

  • Kim, I'm glad to hear that Angus is going to be OK. I know how traumatic it is when they are sick... we would rather be sick ourselves than watch them go through any discomfort!
