Renogram

Good afternoon all,

In January at the age of 39 I found out that I was born with one kidney, my latest blood and urine test show that I have high creatinine levels, at 148, serum urea and albumin/creatine ratio are within the normal range( 5.7 and 2.5 )

I have been advised by my nephrologist to do a renogram due to the renal pelvis being enlarged and was a little scared that the liquid could cause renal damage.

Has anyone ever done one and do you think that shouldn't cause any other issues?

Thank you
