[|Human|] My name is Bonnie. I had my kidney removed 8 months ago because it stopped working. I had problems with the ureter not staying open and had to have stents put in and replaced over and over.  Now I am having pain in the other side in the area of my ureter and having test done. Two days ago I had a double contrast abd. CT and now I feel even worse then before. I feel like I want to puck all the time and Im so tired doing anything is very hard.  I feel like I have the flu and also have some pain in my right kidney. Should I just wait and see what comes of the tests show or should I go back to the ER. But I really think that would be a waste of time. Please help. By the way I also have cardiomyopathy.
[|AI|]  Dear Bonnie,First you must get the detail investigations done to know the present status of your remaining kidney. If it is found to be normal to get the treatment for the ureteric problem at the earliest, mostly to overcome the infection or the obstruction and take the best care of your only kidney as advised by your doctor. Unfortunately, if it is nonfunctioning then the best temporary option is to go for dialysis and start mentally preparing yourself for the "Kidney Transplant" as the permanent solution for your problem.
