MCUG and all ...


We brought her down for the MCUG test today - poor thing, hungry and thristy... no food or water since 6am. Then they sedated her, which made her even more cranky since she's sleepy and hungry and thristy. The procedure was pretty fast - over in less than 30 minutes! My girl was apparently very cooperative - just did what she had to do and to get out.

Then she got her jab (the 6-in-1) by another PD since her regular one had to attend an emergency case. Too cut a long story short, she wasn't pleased with this PD at all.

Then at 9pm, the PD called with the results of the MCUG test. Good news, no operation needed. Bad news, she has Grade 2 VUR, which means her reflux reaches her kidneys. Well, at least we can manage her problem since we now know it. She would be on antibiotics for at least 1 year, and we'll see how it goes from there.

Just so very tired now ... I'll write more when I'm in the right frame of mind.
