So, my precious DD (the light of my life) has had progressive issues "having accidents" on herself since August. At first we chalked it up to her being distracted or waiting too long, but by late September we were ready to take her to the doctor.

So, the pediatrician worked her up for a bladder infection. Nothing. And, now she is wetting bed at night. Before August, she had never done any of this.

So, she went to urologist yesterday with her father. Long story short, she cannot feel when her bladder is extremely full. Not sure why she has lost sensation. They also found kidney stones, which are not as common in kids as in adults.

So, Monday I am taking DD for further studies of her kidneys/bladder...and lab work. Urologist cannot explain this acute change that is getting worse.

If kidney/bladder are normal we have to start looking at spine and brain. My heart is breaking, as I am a peds nurse and understand exactly what all this means.

So, need some pixie dust for DD who is the light of my life. Thanks in advance.

Sending as much pixie dust and as many prayers your way as I can... I'm sure this is a very scary time for both of you. I hope the answers you get back are ones you guys can work with and that it isn't anything too serious...

This is awful for both of you. Embarrassing for your daughter (my niece's 7 yr old has trouble keeping her panties dry during the daytime and has had very few dry nights ever but this is on going and so far an improving issue so her doctor is still advocating wait and see) both from the wetting point of view and all the medical attention.

And so scary for you - as you say, you're a nurse, so you know. And probably worry even more because you can't help but think of all the worse things.

Please keep us informed! And pixie dust for a good quick outcome. :pixie:

Prayers and pixie dust sent.

I had kidney stones at a young age, and have them now. Those alone are tough to deal with, let alone the other issues she is dealing with. Hoping for the best!!

I'm so sorry that your sweet DD has to go through this. As the mom to a 9 year old DS, and the daughter of a urologist, I'll be thinking about you and your family.

Our thoughts and prayers to you an your dd. I hope that you find resolution to her problem.

I recently had kidney stones and that was the worse pain ever... more than having my 2 kids naturally w/o drugs. I have found a wonderful natural cures site that worked wonders for me and my family's health. You never know if the cure to your ailment has been in your pantry this whole time.

PM me if you want the site!

I hope that your dd finds her greatest strength through this trial.

So, update...

Sorry, I have been busy living life, holidays, etc...

Ok, so the Monday before Thanksgiving, I took DD to see a pediatric surgeon that I work with. He spoke with us for a long time, and felt her problems were emotional based, as it all began when her father left town this past summer.

So, he re-ordered some non-invasive tests, which showed absolutely NO stones and constipation. The constipation and bladder u/s showed that she likes to "hold" her bodily movements for as long as possible...again, emotional related.

So, we are doing bladder re-training and Miralax every night.

Moral of the story...do NOT let your exhusband take your daughter to an adult physician that calls your daughter's normal, healthy kidneys as unhealthy...he called kidney stones, when it was a normal, healthy area of a 9 year old's kidney that showed up bright white, like a stone.

So, she is doing great!
