Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was passing blood in my urine (along with flakes), several years ago, The Urologist performed a procedure by lining my bladder with a foamy solution. He explained the procedure would hopefully solve the bleeding (which it did), Recently the passing occurs about once a month. It is starting to happen more often. The doctor mentioned at the time that it may reappear in 5 to 7 years, if so he may have to repeat the procedure. My question is, should I have the evaluation scheduled again ?
Hello and welcome to HCM. As an Urologist, i can understand your concern. My advice to you is : 1. Have a review with your Urologist and let him examine you. 2. You'll need to get tests like, urine routine and culture. 3. blood routine, creatinine, platelets, RBS and LFT. 4. ultrasound scan - KUB,with residual urine. 5. CECT( contrast-CT scan),depending on the ultrasound scan report. 6. cystoscopy test with or without a biopsy to confirm cause of bleeding.
