Blood in Pee

Hi Leo. Cancer cells are weak and can pop causing bleeding which comes out in your pee. Excessive bleeding though needs to be reported. I had heavy bleeding while waiting for my first TURBT and phoned the urology department and they got me an early appointment, so it might be worthwhile giving them a ring to give them a nudge. In the meantime as you probably know, it is really important to keep drinking water to flush things out and prevent blockages. best wishes. 

As rilly says, no harm in contacting the department to pass on the info but it seems you will be treated quite quickly anyway. 

If they've diagnosed it as non invasive - that's obviously a very good thing

Rilly, Hi thanks I will call them Monday AM to let them know. Cheers, Leo

It’s increased  a lot visible blood in almost every pee (sighs) 

Hi Leo1,Sorry to hear you are experiencing this.It might be worth getting a urine sample in for testing.I had a bladder haemorrhage years ago and the dr at hospital said excessive bleeding can lead to infection.I hope it settles down soon.Best wishes Jane 

Take care Leo, sending positive vibes to you

The advice given by other posts is good. I  know that rosé or stronger red pee is concerning and can make you feel a bit 'down.'  I hope that extra water diluted the appearance or restored normality. I still occasionally have the same problem, in fact it was the reason I joined this forum recently. My last TURBT was in 2018 (I had two that year) and I have a urethral catheter to prevent my bladder from flexing but that's my only on-going treatment i.e. I'm on a palliative care regime while otherwise living a fairly normal life. Keep your spirits up as required by talking to people on here and don't shy away from consulting your health specialists/GP. They are there to help.  I wish you all the best. 

Rily - operation early next week, great progress tx Leo

That is good news.I hope all goes well.Best wishes Jane
