Well let me introduce myself, I am a 25 year old Asian man from America.
I had blood in my urine 2 years ago with no pain. One pee with bright red blood, the second one after that was darker colored and then after that there was no blood for the next year. went to doc, they said it was most likely a UTI - drink cranberry juice, they took a urine sample and no blood detected
About a year later, I had a reoccurance, blood in urine and a little bit of blood clot came out in the second pee. Then it stopped bleeding. I captured the blood clot thinking it was a kidney stone and sent it to the hospitals lab, they diagnosed it as a blood clot/organic material and not a kidney stone. Went to the doc, they said UTI once again
Third time occured about 5 weeks ago, this time I demanded to be seen by a urologist. Just saw him today, took a urine same for lab testing and also scheduled for a CT scan.
He wanted to stick a camera into my penis to take a look at my bladder but I rejected this and he said ok we'll depend on the urine test and CT scan to come back and if they look ok, then we won't need to stick a camera in your penis
.
Anyways, from those who are diagnosed with bladder cancer do you have any other symptoms besides blood in urine? I have no pain, feel healthy etc. Just blood in urine from time to time.
I do drink a lot of energy drinks/coffee and also excercise alot which my doctor said may cause blood in urine ?
