So Tanner had his 2nd Ultra-sound and VCUG at Primary Children's yesterday. It was much better than last time. I highly recommend sedation if your child ever has to go through with it. Brooklyn also had to have it done once when she was about 2 years old and it was horrible. She wasn't sedated and she screamed the entire time.
It's a terrible test where they give them a catheter and fill up their bladder with dye. Then they take x-rays to watch and see if the dye goes up from the bladder back towards the kidneys. (Which it shouldn't). With Brooklyn, it didn't but with Tanner it does. He has whats called bladder reflux. He basically gets UTI's a lot because of it. Hopefully he'll out grow it soon. I feel so bad when he's up in the middle of the night crying because it hurts to go to the bathroom and he's in there every 30 minutes.
We have a follow up appointment with the Urologist next week to see what plan of action they think we should take. I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
