GET SEEN, infection: Pain with urination, blood in urine and a fever are signs of urine infection and with history of kidney transplant needs attention right away! another worry is kidney rejection with decreased urine output. Hope he is better soon!

A problem: Fever, blood in urine, pain. These are all very important symptoms in a kidney transplant patient. Many things could be going on; uti, pylelonephritis (infection of the kidney), rejection. He could also have an infection someplace else and be having problems with perfusing his allograft. You should call your transplant coordinator immediately and arrange treatment.

Needs evaluation: There are a number of reasons why he has lower urinary tract voiding symptoms; ranging from a urinary tract infection, enlarged prostate, etc. He should be evaluated by his transplant team or a urologist as soon as possible.
