Polycystic kidney disease?


Polycystic kidney disease?My daughter has 3 cyst on her right kidney and grade one reflux on the left. Does having cyst on the kidney always mean PKD ? Is PKD always inherited ? it isn't any where in our family that I know of. She is 9, one cyst was found 2 years ago and now 3 cyst have been found. If you have PKD, can you me any insight. The doctor said he would see her in 6 months and do another ultrasound in a year, I don't want to wait a year to find if she has PKD. I need answers ...
Thanks,
Amy

I don't know if you can get an answer without a medical professional. However, you may want to ask on the message board of the website for the National Kidney Foundation, at www.kidney.org

Here are some links about PKD, that you can click on:

Polycystic: poly means many, cystic means with cysts

Some can have cysts on their kidneys and it is not
inherited and they don't know, for certain, why they develop.

Cysts can be fluid filled, complex..meaning there is
something other than fluid in them or rarely, cancerous.

They usually just watch the cysts to see if they do
enlarge in size and how fast. They can operate to
remove the wall of the cyst so they will drain into the
body and the body will absorb them; if they do enlarge.
To just poke them and try to drain is not good, as they
can heal and form more fluid inside of them.

Hope this is of some help...best wishes
(you might want to ask for a second opinion...you may
get answers faster this way.
