@ SJMC

Today is a hectic day for Syazwani, abang and me...

Today Syazwani is admitted @ SJMC under Dr Gun Pakar Paed Surgeon...Referred by Dr Lee at Kuantan Specialist Hospital...Dr Lee recomend him as he is pakar dalam paed and pernah pisahkan "kembar siamese" yang becantum kt kepala...

The Dr was friendly... Knowledgeble and etc...



But the waiting for a single room to be done cleaning was like 'Lamanyaaa'...

We've been waiting for 2.5hours

But alhamdulillah the MCU and IVP went out terrificcally (ada ke word tu?) although we have to done it both on 2 days besides 1 day as planned because the visible of duplex system makes the dye to be visible on the ureter and would make the ivp double marked....

What is MCU?
M.C.U. - Micturating Cysto-Urethrogram.
This is where they insert a tube (catheter) into the bladder through the urethra. The bladder is slowly filled with fluid and then pictures are taken. When the x-ray examination is done it is usual for the bladder to be filled until the urine passes back down around the catheter and then the catheter is removed.
Pictures will show the structure of the urethra. Some children have a blockage to this tube. This test is very good and sensitive for detecting ureteric reflux, which is common if your child has a duplex system. Thanks to source.

What is IVP?
intravenous pyelogram (IVP) - a diagnostic imaging technique, which uses an x-ray to view the structures of the urinary tract. An intravenous contrast of dye is given so that the structures can be seen on film. An IVP also reveals the rate and path of urine flow through the urinary tract.

Thanks to source.

Later, the next day, Dr insist us to have an operation to be done because the kidney and ureter will become enlarge if we still wait. also still, this operation is a must to avoid her to get any infection anymore....

So, we agreed and planned to make it during this Deepavali season (3days of cuti) al least this can help us not to ambil banyak cuti sbb annual leave dah habih....

So, doa banyak2 semuanya ok....
