My physician told I have hematuria since 2014.

Posted by rehman @rehman, May 31, 2023

Urine RE show hematuria. PSA level 5.6. Prostrate size on ultrasound 45, 55 MRI and kastly on CT Scan 65 gms. Cysts on kidneys. DRE is normal. 3 cystoscopy results normal. Blood culture negative. Two months ago, the urologist prescribed Ciproxin for two weeks. Now taking Maxflo OD. I am asked to take focin 500 mg. Then repeat MRI on 3 Tesla machine and later cystoscopy and TRUS Biopsy. Anyone could share experience and how worrying it is for my health. I didn’t notice Hematuria earlier. Renal function are normal in test result. Have frequent urine and lately feeling smell as well

...trying to keep comment short, but wondering if you are taking aspirin as some medications can cause bleeding in my bladder due to bladder damage many years ago with pelvic radiation; 3 time i have seen for myself blood in urine and by the time saw urologist had stopped... I still wonder if sometimes from kidneys; also i got a lot of bladder infections from diarrhea - so had to give us sitting in a nice warm sitz bath. It is very worrying and I wish you a good outcome..I have taken Cipro in the past but would not take it again as it is a Quinolone drug which u might want to check on internet... hope some good comments coming your way on here with help.

I am taking Advant 8 mg and Rovista 5 mg once a day for BP. My BP mostly 90/140. I am not taking much precautions on salt or else. My wife like to cook for me and can’t afford to ask her restraint.
I got constipated when I was taking Norvasc. But my physician changed it to Advant and am okay with better whole grain and vegetables fruits intake.
Hematuria is effecting my moral. I walk daily 3-5 km.
