Anyone else have pain from nephrostomy drain
Hi Rosie. Sorry to hear you are in some discomfort with your drain. I've no experience so no help but hopefully someone will be along with some advice. Best wishes..
Hi Rosie13
Is he drinking plenty of water and keeping hydrated? Having a metallic taste can be a factor with kidney issues, so it’s important to keep drinking. Does he have any other issues apart from the metallic taste? If it’s just the taste, then have you tried different flavours and spices in cooking?
