I found it interesting when I questioned my internist after my diagnosis with BC as to why he DIDN'T do a urinalysis with my annual exam. He said he never found anything so it wasn't "cost effective." Interesting. Also interesting, I NEVER had any blood in my urine before or during my diagnosis journey according to my urologist.
