dr. cox just called

Our pediatrician just called with great news! Ryan went to the hospital on Monday for a scheduled Nuclear Medicine VCUG (Voiding Cystourethrogram) . This is her second. For those of you who recall, Ryan has been on a daily preventative antibiotic to keep her from getting UTIs and if it didn't correct itself, she might have had to have surgery to change the positioning of the tube that attaches the bladder to the kidney at about 4 years old. But in the meantime would have to take this antibiotic every day until then. If you would like to understand the process better, go to http://www.inova.com/inovapublic.srt/ifhc/vcug.pdf
Good news, the doctor reported that the problem has corrected itsself and her VCUG came back negative. Yippie! This is such a relief! We are so happy to hear this news!
