Thank you for the reply. I know and understand that everybody heals differently. It just gets so frustrating seeing him go through all this. He's not the energetic man he was before the transplant. Our visit Wednesday was exhausting, they drew blood and his magnesium and phosphorous were low so he had to have a 4 hour drip. We are a little over 3 hours one way from the hospital.They took the bag off and clamped it, so far he has been urinating. We have to keep a daily urine count. If he goes 8 hours without urinating then we have to put the bag back on. We go back next Thursday and they might remove the tube to see if the ureter stays open. If not they are talking surgery.
Im glad to hear you are doing good 😊

@lindajo, I have been traveling. I did find this information about hydronephrosis that I want to share here. I apologize for the delay in getting it to you. https://www.kidney.org/atoz/content/hydronephrosis

I hope that he is showing some improvement. Has the tube been removed? What do the doctors say about any future treatment?
