See below: It should be pain free and no more discomfort than when your son received the vcug. Here is the deflux website, in case you haven't seen it yet: http://www.Deflux.Com.

Good result: It depends on the severity of the reflux, but the success rate is 80 to 90 percent. Patients go home soon after surgery with minimal discomfort. Talk to your urologist.
