my 6 yr old son went to the drs. last Thursday and had a urine test done. The dr. said that he might have something wrong with his kidneys, so next month he has to get an ultrasound of his kidneys. He drinks plenty of water and sense I m a diabetic they have the same diet as me should I be worried? My sister lost one of her kidneys when she was 2 yrs old.
Hi, thank you for choosing Chat Doctor.Let's not jump to conclusion before we get all the test reports, sometimes when the CUE is abnormal we get a screening USG kidneys done to rule out any structural abnormalities, and as it is not being done in an emergency basis I think you needn't worry that much. And your sisters' kidney loss may not be related to your sons' problem as it is very rare for kidney problems to be hereditary or running in families. Hope this has helped you. Your vote of thanks is appreciated, Good luck, Chat Doctor.
