The surgery coordinator called late yesterday and I missed the call. I will call today to get a date. By the way, I also have an appt with a Nephrologist next Tuesday. A couple of months ago (before the UTUC diagnosis), I mentioned to my PCP that my blood pressure had been fluctuating (anywhere from 110/60 to 178/90) and he took a blood test for my renin level. Renin is an enzyme secreted by the kidney and it helps regulate blood pressure. My level was VERY high. I asked my urologist about it and he said that he preferred I see a Nephrologist about it. The first appointment was 2+ months away, but I spoke to a PA then who said it wasn’t an “emergency” so it could wait. I had another renin blood test a couple of weeks ago (my PCP ordered it) and it has come down a lot, but is still high. I am keeping the appt with the Nephrologist to get his opinion on all of this (the renin level, UTUC, and laser procedure). So this will be my THIRD opinion. I’ll keep you posted….
