Welcome back to the NCS Podcast! We're continuing to build episode by episode, starting with my NCS diagnosis and now diving into the specific scans and procedures that led to my kidney autotransplant.
In the previous episode (#5), I shared my lived experience with the venogram. In this episode, we take a deeper look into the renal hilar block (RHB). I discuss not only what the RHB is and why it's performed but also provide a detailed account of my experience—from start to finish.
Along the way, I explore the subjective nature of the RHB and the foundational concerns it raises about the test itself. As always, this is my personal experience, and I invite you to share yours in the comments so we can continue the conversation. I also encourage you to keep researching and learning from others—be sure to check out the NCS Facebook group for more information on this topic.
