complex cyst on kidney

by eileen621, Feb 19, 2007 12:00AM
I found out that I had a complex cyst on my right kidney in 1997.  Then I became incontinent, which in 2001 i had a bladder sling operation.  Now I have MS and am incontinent again.  They have recently found that the comples cyst on my kindney has many cysts growing all around it.  I have to self catheterize, and up until about 2 weeks ago, after voiding I would catherterize and still get about 20oz of urine.  Now they have found diverticulum in my bladder.  Now when I catheterize all I get is white crystals instead of urine.  My Dr. told me to keep catheterizing until they do a urodynamics on me, with needles this time.  Should I be as concerned as I am?  I take 25mgs. of ritalin daily to keep me awake, and I still need to take a nap during the day.  Sometimes 3-4  hour naps.  I am scared, should I be?
