Urologist 's  Response
Hi Emelia and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, i can understand your anxiety.
Mild dilatation of the calyces,isn't something to worry about.
Lisinopril is being given to control high blood pressure.
Drink about ten glasses fluids daily.
Repeat the scan after 6 months, to check if there's any change.
Wish you well.
