Dear Sir/Maam/
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!!!)
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.
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

You need to get him to the doctor immediately! A urologist will be able to determine what tests need to be performed. Do not wait. It could be something simple or something serious - WEB diagnosis is impossible.
My 5 year old daughter had trace amounts of blood in her urine during a physical examination a year ago... After 2 sample analysis' were done, the Doc. told me there was nothing to worry about, although he couldn't tell me "why" she had the blood in her urine... A year has gone by... I just brought my daughter for hie kindergarten examination and the Doc. tells me there is blood detected in her urine - as well as white cells... We sent a sample to the lab for tests.. Should I be worried??
