Dear Sir,

Thanks for the query.

The blood with clots you are experiencing in your urine is most likely because of radiation after effects. You should not be duly concerned about this.

At this point of time and we can wait for you hyperbolic chamber treatment. However if you experience retention of urine then you shall have to go to emergency room.

Hope I have addressed your concern. Let me know if you have any other enquiries.

Regards

Should I be concerned with the pain when I pee which is about a 9 on a scale of 10. It only lasts from 5-10 minutes. I have a kidney full of stones but all are believed to be passable and have not have a problem for 7 years.. I have to sit to pee. There were several times while peeing that inadvertantly dropped a book. In picking it up I had a 10 pain in the area of right kidney. Last week I was diagnosed with Cellulitis. I have been taking Cipro and believed that pain was because of the UTI. Do you agree?

Dear,

You need to have an ultrasound done to see if any of those stones is stuck into the ureter or not.

The pain you are and have been experiencing is most likely to be because of UTI. However, you need to find out the cause for UTI and hence an ultrasound is mandatory.

Let me know your other concerns.

Thank you.
