All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, visit this site for info and talk to your doctor: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/blood-in-urine/symptoms-causes/syc-20353432 Wish you good health!
