I was diagnosed with hydronephrosis at one year post kidney transplant. My Transplant nephrologist and urologist put me on tamsulosin, which is working well to keep fluid off my Kidney transplant by making my bladder work more efficiently. I know it is easy to worry about any challenges with a kidney transplant but I find having complete faith in my Transplant team makes a huge difference. I know they want my kidney transplant to stay as healthy as possible. Trust in our team is so important.

The common thought is reflux and/or a blockage, your doc's should do a VCUG and possibly a cystoscopy, and maybe a CT depending what they see on the VCUG.
