A member asked:
Is it serious for a dialysis patient to have blood in the urine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: If patient is on dialysis, we assume there is little functional kidney left, but kidneys, ureters, and bladder may still develop cancer, especially if patient is a smoker. It should be investigated.
