New to the group and to Aryuveda - hydronephrosis

[Guest guest]

Hi,

My name is Laura, 42 years old, from Mexico living in USA, married

and no children, housewife.

Hope somebody can share with me some suggestions. I know I need to

learn (and that's why I joing the group) more about Aryuveda. But

let me explain my health problems, right now I'm waiting for a

surgery and in the mean time I try to keep the better that I can.

This are the results of my catscan:

"Oct. 3, 2005

Findings: Lower lungs appear clear. Liver and spleen appear

normal. Heart is unremarkable. Adrenal glands are well seen and

normal. Pancreas is normal. Gallbladder unremarkable. Upper bowel

appears well opacified there is a stool in the large bowel.

Left kidney appears normal. Right Kidney shows significant

hydronephrosis whith chronically dilated calyces and pelvis. There

also a couple small cysts off the lateral portion of the right

kidney. Ureter is markedly dilated down to the level of the upper

pelvis and the lower abdomen the reight ureter measures side-toside

approximately 2.1 cm. Theres ia a large complex cystic solid mass

with septations in the reight side of the mid pelvis extending to

the top of the pelvis. This has thick walls some nodularity and

measures frontal back about 12.2 cm side-to-side approximately 7.9

cm.

I do not see adenopathy in the abdomen. In the pelvis theres is the

dominant mass in the right pelvis and again the second somewhat

smaller mass posteriorly on the left and measures about 4 cm x 3.5

cm. No adenopathy seen.

Impression:

1. Marked hydronephrosis and chronic obstruction and dilated ureter

right kidney

2. Large 12.2 x 8.0 cm separated right pelvic mass and smaller mass

contiguous with this low on the left 4.3 x 3.4 cm. Likely ovarian

tumor or tumor recurrence and high grade obstrucion from the tumor

at the level of the distal right ureter."

 

Previously:

Age 27 - 3 tumors were removed from outside of the uterus through a

vertical section on my stomach; the sizes were compared with a

cantaloupe, a grapefruit and a lemon.

Age 34 - 5 tumors were removed from inside and outside of the uterus

through a vertical section on my stomach; I don't know what sizes

they were.

Ate 39 - Tumors found inside and outside of the uterus plus huge

cists on both ovaries were removed through a full husterectomy.

Amount and sizes are unknown to me.

 

What else can I tell you, just: I need suggestions. I don't have

health insurance neither my husband, he's selfemployed, that's why

the delay on the surgery... In a way, I'm glad because I'm affraid

of a new surgery and because I have never had a problem with the

kidney, until now.

 

I will really appreciate all that you can do.

 

The best for all of you,

Laura
