Hi and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can understand your anxiety.
Your mother doesn't need to undergo a cystoscopy every 9 months.
For the abdominal pain and fullness in kidney p-c system,she must do a CT.
A CT is CT-IVU scan,which'll give accurate information about the fullness.
It'll show details of the fullness,if it affects the kidney and cause of pain.
That'll clear all your doubts.The scan can be sent here,for an expert opinion.
Wish you well.
