Reed's appointment yesterday went well. He will be referred to see a pediatric urologist. The general surgeon with met with yesterday said this would be their area
of expertise so they will know what is the best course of action to take.
They were concerned about the mass being attached to the adrenal glad but this is not the case. It is more acting as a hat to the kidney which they say may potentially still have some slight function or it will not function at all. They also noted his right kidney is bigger than average (it mesasure in the 95 percentile) and he said this is because it is overcompensating for the left one and will probably get bigger. Now it's just waiting for the Urology Clinic to get a hold of us and meet with them and see what they have to say. They did try to get us into the clinic while we were there yesterday but our appointment was later in the day (we met with the general surgeon around 4pm) and the clinic was closed for the day. It would have been nice to see them all in the same day but c'est la vie!
