History Of Hysteretomy, Gastric Bypass, Adrenal Insufficiency. Taking Hydrocortisone. Blood In Urine. Concerned?

Hi, I am a 44 yr. old female (4'11, 135 lbs.). I have a history of hysterectomy (2003), gastric bypass (2012) and adrenal insufficiency (2012), for which I take hydrocortisone daily. Recently there has been visible blood in my urine and my urine analysis came back positive with a large amount of blood, protein (30), bilirubin (small), ca oxalate crystals (many), rbc (17), wbc (<50), hyaline casts (1) and leukocyte ester (small). I have an appointment with a urologist pending but am curious to find out what this could be. Should I be concerned? Please advise.

Hi, you are 44 years female, got hysterectomy in 2003, gastric bypass in 2012, had adrenal insufeciency, recently had blood in urine, testing shows rbc 17, oxalate crystals many.
It appears to be due to stone in the urinary system, either in kidney, ureter, bladder, or urithra, to be confirmed by the USscaning and treated.
Thank you.
