Hello,

I'm new to the forum. My PCP recently told me that my right kidney has shifted. This was seen on an ultrasound performed because a lumbar MRI showed an abnormality. She told me it's nothing to be concerned about - other than perhaps this kidney might not drain as well as the other. My only symptoms are occasional small amounts of blood in my urine, lower back and mild flank pain, swelling around my eyes and TERRIBLE headaches. All my blood tests were normal. Has anyone ever heard of a "shifted" kidney? Is this something I should be concerned about?

Thank you,
dawna
