Will everything be ok for him?Latest up date. Rod has been to the hospital but they are concerned over how much blood he is peeing and may have to be admitted. He has been reading the thread and said it was nice to know people care.
I suppose long term from what he has said the problem could be kidney damage. Must be horrible peeing out blood and worms, I’d imagine very uncomfortable.Will everything be ok for him?
Indeed. Both kidneys or one?I suppose long term from what he has said the problem could be kidney damage. Must be horrible peeing out blood and worms, I’d imagine very uncomfortable.
Unsure, he is going in to hospital so perhaps he will find out more shortly.Indeed. Both kidneys or one?
Thank you for the info. Keep us informed.Unsure, he is going in to hospital so perhaps he will find out more shortly.
Per my post #5, speaking from personal experience, I can tell you it is very unpleasant. Regarding the kidneys, I had a retrograde pyelogram under general anaesthetic to examine my kidneys; fortunately they weren’t damaged. I remember feeling very energized physically and mentally once the bilharzia was cured, and there’ve been no ongoing issues in the 60 years since. The only thing I can’t do is donate blood, but that’s probably more to do with my having had malaria; mind you, as soon as I mentioned I’d had two tropical parasitic diseases they showed me the door.I suppose long term from what he has said the problem could be kidney damage.

Think I would freak out !
