What Causes Sudden Weight Loss And Urinary Incontinence?
Over the past year I have experienced weight loss and about 8 months ago I began experiencing urinary incontinence. That subsided but recently, the past two weeks, I have had visible blood in my urine. The blood in the urine is now gone, but I have a small lump in the left side of my lower abdomen. I have a 13mm kidney stone on the right side and have had the stone for years but I have no flank pain and a CT with contrast in May didn t show anything abnormal in the pelvic region. What could be causing these bizarre intermittent symptoms?

Hello,
The symptoms you described are alarming and can be due to either chronic infection like tuberculosis or sometimes tumor in kidney, ureter or bladder. You require a detailed clinical evaluation followed by repeat CT scan for correct diagnosis.
