Question 2

if a urinalysis shows no blood in urine  a week after a single gross hematuria event, does that mean the issue has resolved? (i.e. possible kidney stone passed, etc). i am on eliquis and had left flank plain 4 days before gross hematuria occurrence?

Accepted Answer

Yes, possible: Above scenario appears consistent with a passed stone, however you are left with the 2 conditions that contributed, taking a blood thinner and the propensity of forming stones and the risk for another such episode in the future remains high. Make sure all your treating docs are aware of recent events.

Question 3

45 yo fem-recent blood/urine tests identified high neutrophils (80%), low lymphocytes [14.8% and 0.94x10(3) mcl], ketones in urine (2+), blood in urine (1+), elevated urobilinogen (2.0 mg/dl), blood gluc./a1c (prediab), and low blood sod. thoughts?

Accepted Answer

: Probably you have a urinary tract infection. Follow-up with your doctor for conclusive advice and treatment.

Question 4

i had my baby by c section 8 weeks ago, i had placenta previa and lost alot of blood. 2 weeks ago i started having brownish discharge. is it normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: This is normal. Brownish discharge is "old" blood from your uterine lining. You can have this type discharge for up to a month

Question 5

i had placenta previa with my 2nd baby its been 18 months since the birth im now useing implanon for contreception. my period. blood smells bad?

Accepted Answer

Bacterial vaginosis: Vaginal odor would be unrelated to your delivery 18 months ago and unrelated to implanon. This sounds like infection and most likely bacterial vaginosis. Blood tends to make the odor worse with this infection. Treatment is antibiotics so you will need to see your obgyn for testing and confirmation.

Question 6

gross hematuria with blood clots but only after sexual activity. urine clear when no sexual activity occurs. prostate? busted seminal vessel? ua was neg for protein blood etc. white count normal too. thoughts?

Accepted Answer

: Bladder cancer would be my first concern. Someone needs to look in ur bladder.

Question 7

gross hematuria, end of urination. blood samples, urine samples done. no infection. "tense" bladder, lower back pain, occasional scrotum/testicle pain?

Accepted Answer

Hmm...: I bet you've got a little vascular malformation that's grown in your prostatic urethra. Time to get with a urologist. You're a young man, probably in the peak of good health, and pain around there is surely a nuisance. We can figure it out and fix it, I'll bet. Best wishes.

Question 8

how long will oxycodone stay in your blood urine and placenta?

Accepted Answer

Halflife: Any medication especially narcotics are eliminated from ones body depending on the drugs hale-life.  It usually will take over 5 half-lifes to allow a medication to be fully eliminated from the body including urine.
Oxycodone's half-life is 4.5 hours.

Question 9

can ic cause blood in urine?

Accepted Answer

IC: Interstitial cystitis (ic) usually is not associated with blood in the urine (hematuria). Urinary tract infections and stones are a much more likely etiology of blood in the urine. Occasionally hematuria, usually microscopic, is hereditary and of no significance. @ 15 % of hematuria, in older patients is associated with tumors and cancer which is usually detected with a ct scan or cystoscopy.

Question 10

can constipaton cause blood in urine?
