Dad
had asked Tom to call Dr. Chang, the urologist, for a consult on why he was
peeing so much. Tom took dad today and they performed an ultrasound. There
were no major revelations. Dad has some blockage of the kidneys and Dr. Chang
ordered a test for that. He is also going to do a urine retention test. Have
Dad drink a lot of fluids in Dr. Chang’s office and then they will measure how
much Dad pee’s and the strength of the stream. That test is tomorrow. There is
also some blood work being done to determine the state of his kidneys. Dad’s
been doing well the last couple of months. He was scheduled to do a kidney
follow-up with Dr. Nichols in August, so the timing of this is about
right.
That’s it for now. Hope everyone is well,
John
