krissy Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Kili is back to see her specialist. Recheck ultrasound looks much better but now we feel more confident about a possible ectopic ureter, which is a ureter that doesn't open in the right place. So she's definitely going to have a scope today and since her vulvar conformation isn't great we're going to do a quick nip tuck. Just in case it is contributing to her problems. If the scope shows an ectopic she's going right to surgery. On top of that her heart murmur hasn't resolved and since she's now over 6 months it's a little concerning. So now we're waiting for cardiology. The heart is my main concern now. I got her 110% for agility and if she has a problem that precludes that then I'm in big trouble. Wish us luck.

Anesthesia no concerns for today. Agility okay. Excellent news, when you consider what the outcome could have been. I assume "anesthesia no concerns" means surgery's no longer necessary?

I assume "anesthesia no concerns" means surgery's no longer necessary? No, sorry, it means the cardiologist isn't worried about her not being able to handle the anesthesia today or bad things happening. We're waiting for her scope now and that'll determine if we go to surgery.

krissy Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 So scope showed a persistent hymen. That was broken down and suspect ectopic ureter. They are prepping her for her nip tuck and then she is having surgery to check out the ureter situation. Which is a nightmare because if there really is an ectopic they need to keep her for 2 days to keep an eye on her urine output abilities and reultrasound. I have no idea how I'm going to come back and get her in the middle of the week with work since the specialist is 2 hours away (not like I can just pop by on my lunch break). So I'm hoping it turns out to be nothing.

krissy Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Yay! Just popped into surgery so her surgeon could show me what she's seeing, which fortunately appears to be nothing. She thinks the tunneling they were seeing is part of her persistent hymen. So looks like she's coming home tonight and hopefully will be cured.
