CT scan, no changes, but 10th infection since April and this time in the kidneys

lizzie17

I feel like it is time for another doctor to try and figure this all out.

So, even though I really like my oncologist, I do have a Cancer Center near enough and
think I will start to go there. I started there 3 years ago, but it was so big, etc.

But now I seem to be more complicated than when I had my DX and surgery.

This infection was called a "breakthru infection" because I was on a preventive, prophylactic antibiotic.

Any thoughts or am I overreacting? Or too late reacting---I AM good at being an
ostrich.

Thanks and prayers.

I think ....
You need to see a Urologist....someone who specializes in this field....your oncologist can handle the dreaded "cancer" side of your health, but I would, personally, see a urologist... 10 infections since April is way to many....is your white count really low?

Keep us posted and I am so sorry this keeps happening..
Hugs, Nancy

urologist
My primary sent me to one in July, who has been treating me......
So, maybe just a new urologist????

The hematuria came back this morning for a while.
