Max,

This is why the protocol is cysto every 3 months, so they catch anything early. Glad to hear you have a check this Wednesday. I hope it is nothing more than a UTI. Keep us posted.

Max,

The answer to your question is it could be something of close to nothing. I have had UTIs that were not symptomatic with blood. I am sure we all could come up with stories that go one way or another but they mean nothing, this is about you. It is good that you have a check coming up next week so you can know what you are dealing with as soon as possible. I always find that the hardest times I have with all of this is the not knowing. I know that does not help a lot but hang in there and let us know what you find out.

Chin up and straight forward

Tonight saw blood & clots in my urine.It has been three months since
my last scope(At which time I was clean).Needless to say this came as a
shock...Having a difficult time dealing with it.
This is Saturday night so I called my Doctor's answering service....
Got the covering doctor..told him my situation.He asked me some questions
then prescribed antibiodics.He said call the office first thing monday
morning.
Actually,I have an appointment for a follow up scope on the 12-19,which is this coming Wednesday..I don't want to ramble here..guess my question is
has anybody experienced this kind of thing three months after having
a clean scope? What was the outcome?
Worried,
Max
