Posted By Debbie on July 19, 1999 at 11:11:12]P{Dear Sir/Maam/]br{MY Husband has had blood in his urine. It started last week, on sunday. He had blood in his urine all day, then it cleared up and he didn't experience the problem again until this Sunday. (I do not think he is allergic to Sundays!!!)]br{He is an iron worker and has a very physical job. He said that he doesn't have pain or burning during urination, nor has he been running a fever. He does seem more fatigued than usual. Also he is a heavy drinker of beer. He has had some lower back pain and pain in the abdomen just under the rib cage.]br{I am very concerned about this but I cannot get him to let me make him an appointment to see his Doctor. Am I perhaps over-reacting? Could this be something minor? I only discovered the problem by accident. Your reply would be appreciated. Debbie]P{]P{]HR WIDTH=}75%} SIZE=}4} COLOR=}#000090}{

Gary, When My husband got off work on Monday, he said he had been bleeding all day. He was worried enough to buy cranberry juice on the way home from work.(He hates cranberry juice). He also let me call his
doctor. They wanted him in right away. They did a urine ample to see if there was blood in the urine. (couldn't miss it it was completely red). They also did blood draws. They said he definatly had an infection because of the white blood cell count and precribed Bactrim. They sceduled him for an IVP test on Monday. Any ideas about how this test is performed? When I looked up his symtoms, everything is pointing to bladder cancer. Boy, do I hope I'm wrong!!! I did not tell him what I found and the
Doctor never brought it up either, but I could tell by how insistant they were about this test that they are concerned also. I'll let you know what happens.
