[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 396789, member: 3444"] O.M.G. There's some kind of tube in his bladder. So this is self-inflicted. :hammer: And it wasn't there in '07 when he had a CT done. Looking back, in '08 and '09 when we were having huge behaviorial issues with him, he was taking LONG baths and I was finding all sorts of implements in the tub and sometimes stool. I just figured he was constipated and being a stupid teenager trying to deal with it on his own. At the time, we had some flexible vinyl Tinkertoy tubes and I'm thinking this might be what's in there! I'm finding very little humor in this because they also said his kidneys are somewhat enlarged and they think this object is causing reflux into them. They also think the irritated bladder is likely to blame for the bowel problems he's been having. So we have an appointment a week from today with a urologist in their minimally invasive urology center (which sounds like this can probably be resolved with a scope). And maybe, finally, his bowel problems will all be resolved after he gets through this. Wouldn't that be wonderful? Trying to figure out the best way to tell difficult child 1 and how much to reveal. He's sleeping right now. Thinking I'll wait until Sunday or Monday. Never a dull moment around here. That's for sure! :bloodshot: [/QUOTE]
