Brief Answer:
Hello. It can be due to urine infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through the details. So the symptoms you described are likely XXXXXXX to urinary infection or colon infection. Bladder cancer is very very unlikely to produce such symptoms. Get a urine routine test and ultrasound of abdomen done to rule out infection or tumor. Nothing to worry.
Thanks and regards

Well, that makes me feel little better, but I just saw the Urologist last week and they did a urine sample test, all negative. I actually had a abdominal Ct scan and abdominal ultra sound about 7 months ago and everything was negative. So what are your thoughts?
