A couple of weeks back, I got home from work, went to the bathroom and had urines so red it looked like a trafic light. Simce then on and off traces of blood has shown. So far blood tests, Ultra Sounds and a CAT Scan have shown no reason. Thursday I get the dreaded camera inserted (just thinking about it makes tears run). However, this has had a funnyside to it. At the ER the first night, they wanted a sample, which of course was pink in colour. 15 minutes later the ER Doctor came back and I quote "Well your sample showed traces of blood in it". I looked at her and then just could not help myslef - "Gee, you think?? Why the @#$$%%^&& do you think I'm in here?" My ex (we still friends) slide down the rooms wall with laughter.

I had a similar experience only it was with our uroligist. Needless to say , I turned around and walked out of his office and went to one in another town 26 miles away. HARVE UNIT199 CEF0210/CVC#018/HAM#010 Midwest 10 Meter Net Controller

Any abdominal discomfort? Sensation that you still have to urinate even though you just did a minute ago? If so, possible kidney stones. Your radio 'Mythbuster' since 1998

I had this problem about 2 years ago. In my case it was too much potassium. I had taken too many potassium tablets. Hope your problem is solved as easy as mine was. Izzy CEF#502
