Question 1

what does moderate blood in urine chemistry mean? doctor said nothiing to worry about.

Accepted Answer

Testing Method: Any blood in the urine on a properly collected specimen (catheterized for women) warrants evaluation if persistent or visible.
If you've not had a cath specimen then it is critical you do.  If there's no blood on two separate tests then you are ok.  If there is blood then you need to see a urologist.  Two cath specimens like this warrant a workup.  A ct and look in the bladder should be done.

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.
