My daughter just had a renal ultrasound as a remedial due to surgery she had on her kidney as a baby. She had a clean bill of health at 11 months and has not needed any follow-up since then. The ultrasound showed hydronephrosis on her right kidney even though she has ZERO symptoms. The doctor reading her scans casually mentioned that it is most likely caused by scarring from the previous surgery. Other than saying he would have to report the hydronephrosis, the doctor didn't seem concerned at all. He did say that further testing could be done to test the function, but he didn't actually tell us we should get the tests done. Now that I'm reading more at home, it looks like at the very least that she should have her kidney drained. First, I'm concerned that my daughter's chances at a SA are done. But second, I'm trying to figure out what we should do on our own. If this is simply a case of scar tissue needing to be removed, can that be done soon and then could she possibly be waived? We will almost certainly follow-up on our own if DODMERB does not ask for it, but if she has any chance of a waiver then we want to wait to see what course of action they want her to take. Any thoughts on whether she has any chance of a waiver (we are assuming this will be a DQ)? Has anybody had anything similar? Has anyone had surgery as a result of something from a remedial and still been waived? If it makes a difference, although she haven't received it, she was called about 10 days ago and told that she should expect to receive a LOA (this was separate from any medical).
