The : The most common symptoms of bladder cancer are: - blood in the urine - usually not painful (9 out of 10 people with bladder cancer will have this) - urinating small amounts frequently - pain during urination - frequent urinary tract infections as you can see, those symptoms are pretty vague and many other more common illnesses can have the same symptoms such as a urinary tract infection, kidney or bladder stone, or a sexually transmitted disease just to name a few. Some people also have: - weight loss - a lump or mass in the pelvic area - flank pain - bone pain - swelling in the lower legs - anemia if your symptoms are not improving, see your doctor again. If they are not sure what is going on, then it might be helpful to see a specialist such as a urologist. Good luck!

Hematuria: While blood in the urine needs to be worked up by a urologist, Actos (pioglitazone) has not been convincingly associated with bladder cancer. You should see a urologist for evaluation.
