Hematuria: Please go to a nephrologist. Microscopic hematuria can be caused by several factors, some very normal. You need a good urinalysis,microscopic analysis, CBC/metabolic panel, 24hr urine . A nephrologist can tell you if cystoscopy, biopsy, or more tests are needed. Consider switching SIngulair (montelukast).
