I have been diagnosed with chronic pylenephritis( chronic kidney infection). I have been on antibiotics for a little over a month 2 more months to go. I have been having some pretty bad kidney pain. Today I have only urinated 2 times and have noticed some swelling in my hands and a few added pounds. Does this sound like my kidney infection could be getting worse? Any on,e else have this problem?? I also found out through an IVP that I have 2 ureters in my left kidney, which is the one that's infected. We have to clear up the infection before he can remove the extra ureter. Please any comments would be helpful.
