We had a big scare last month with Jared. He had a urinary tract infection or UTI as the doctors call it. He had a lot of tests and they all came back normal except for his renal ultrasound, it showed an extra piece or part of his left kidney and the pediatrician was a little worried about it so he send us to Primary Children's Hospital to see one of the Pediatric Urologists to find out what we should do next. Any time a doctor refers you to PCH it isn't a good thing and it is cause for major stress. We met with Heidi White a nurse practitioner in the Urology department at PCH. She said that he has an anatomical anomaly but nothing to worry about he just has an extra little piece of kidney but that didn't make him more likely for more UTI's and chances were that he may never have another UTI. We were really relieved.
