Harry's parents have received the results of his radioscope scan (where a small dose of radioactive medicine was injected into a vein prior to his urinary system being scanned). This showed no significant concern regarding his non-functioning kidney and it means that Harry no longer needs to be given the antibiotics that he has received daily from birth. Occasionally, having a dysfunctional kidney can cause a rise in blood pressure, so this will be checked in due course by his GP, and re-checked on a regular basis.
