First appointment at nephrologist
Posted: Sun Jul 31, 2016 12:05 am
Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum.
My wife has been suffering for ages with her blood pressure meds. None of them seem to work for her , each one makes her feel worse.
Finally the doctor is sending her to see the nephrologist specialist next week. She is very scared and fears the worse.
What should she expect to happen for her first appointment? She is really anxious.
Will they need to do her a full medical exam ? What does that envolve ? Would that evolve her undressing entirely ?
Will she get an kidney and heart ultrasound? Does it hurt ?
What where your first experience like ?
Wishing everyone a speedy recovery.
