| I started out with upj obstruction...
I'm a 26 year old female who had mild to severe hydronephrosis in one kindey due to a upj obstruction. I was told it is congenital. In January of 2007, my urologist performed laproscopic pyeloplasty because i was having upper abdominal pain, which I wouldn't think is related at all (but they just so happened to spot my big kidney again).I thought i was fine and then I started having issues again, which I believed was acid reflux. Well, i had another ultrasound done and this time, it showed severe hydronephrosis in the same kidney. I went back to the surgeon who put in another stent until I had yet another surgery. This time I had uterocystoscopy (i hope im spelling it right---they basically cut my ureter off where the new blockage was and cut a piece of my kidney off and placed the ureter in that new location). Well I had that surgery in early September 2007. As of a few weeks ago, I started having extreme back pain and weird urinary issues, as if i had one of my lovely stents in again...but no stent & no infection. Does anyone think that these issues have to do with the kidney and perhaps this isn't my last surgery???? I was lying around for 4 weeks so I'm thinking my back pain might be from sitting in my chair at work...???? I'm really nervous. I am going into the hospital again to see if anything is wrong but I'm so sick of this....
