How Safe And Effective Is Robotic Surgery For UPJ Obstruction?
I have been diagnosed with UPJ obstruction and I am scheduled to have a robotic surgery on Wednesday. I am very nervous and was wondering if all my side and back pain will be fixed by this surgery. I have a wonderful Doctor, but I have odd symptoms. I am frequently tired and I get pain in my top front abdomin under my rib cage. I get bloating and I feel very uncomfortable. It even hurts to have BM s at times. Are these symptoms normal for a UPJO? The last CT scan showed my right kidney to be the size of a football. The ER Doctor was alarmed. I previously had a stent placed and the kidney went back to normal, but a couple weeks after the obstruction was back. I ended up in ER and Dr. Wondered if I was happy with the urologist I was seeing because he was alarmed he was leaving it enlarged. Hence, I went to a better urologist who said I needed this surgery.
