Hello all -- this seems like a very helpful forum, and I'm glad I found it.
I had a routine urinalysis in March which showed microscopic hematuria, confirmed a few times while I was seeing my gynecologist for post-menopausal treatment which reduced the lab results of blood in my urine (not visible to me) from "large" to "trace." Pelvic CT showed no kidney stones, proceeded to urologist for cytoscopy which showed nothing abnormal. Urologist said to come back in 6 months, and I left another urine sample for cytology. "Atypical cells," repeat urinalysis (at my convenience they said). I did that today and saw the lab order: FISH. I had no idea what that was, until I looked it up. Ugh.
I realize there's no point in getting worked up until I receive more information, but I'm wonder how often cytoscopy is normal, yet something is there. I have no symptoms, just the history of hematuria...
Thoughts? Thank you in advance!
