Title: Found out the doctor didn't tell me everything
Post by: christined on July 14, 2015, 01:45:49 PM

I was told that biopsy said I have FSGS Perihilar in 1/2008.  But I just reviewed my medical and found the following out:

I have Chronic Membranous Glomerulonephritis WITH Focal Segmental Glomerulosclorosis

Has anyone had both of these before?  I would think this would be important information to tell me.

Christine, I haven't heard of this condition before but I would definitely recommend that you find another Nephrologist who can explain it to you, if you're not happy with the Neph you have seen. Hope you'll be able to sort this out before too long. It's important to know exactly what is happening with your kidneys & why.
Good luck.
