Brief Answer:
Difficult to say

Detailed Answer:
Hi Proofpro,

It is difficult to say what the cause of your symptoms are. However, with changes in the appearance of your urine, an urge to urinate and previous positive dipstick for blood, I would definitely recommend a computed tomography scan of your urinary system and a cystoscopy.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have further questions.
