A member asked:
Hi i am 29 weeks pregnant, i have a nephrostomy in and it is leaking from the insertion, and they are refusing to take it out. what can i do?

No good options: The leaking is certainly annoying, but you obviously have the nephrostomy for a reason, and management options are very limited until you have the baby. Hang in there!

Communicate: Get with the urologist. Sounds like you need to work things out with him/her. Your ob/gyn could possibly facilitate the process.
