Natalie's appointment

Natalie had her repeat ultrasound today. She still has an enlarged kidney. It's not any worse, so that's the good news. We're going to continue watching it and hopefully it will decrease over time. The doctor said it's too hard to see if there's a difference with such short time period inbetween ultrasounds, so he's going to give it a little bit more time to decrease and see her again in May. So hopefully more time will give it a chance to decrease a little. The next time we need a refill on her antibiotic, she'll be put on something different. It's a little stronger, but not as gentle as ammoxicillin, which is why he started her out on that. She will continue on antibiotics until she has surgery (unless the fluid decreases on it's own).
We'll go back in May for another ultrasound and then if it's still enlarged, we'll go back shortly afterwards for another renal scan. Please keep her in your prayers!
