Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a 44 year old male, 6 -1 ,190#, diagnose with Spondylitis Ankilosante and taking enbrel 50mg twice a week and cataphlan twice a day. I started 10 days ago with two doses of enbrel since the inflammation persists after 3 months with one weekly dose. My actual problem is that since two days ago I wake up in the morning with blood in my underwear. Its like a 2 inch diameter area. I made an urinalysis and it is ok just with 4-6 red blood cells and during the day I can t see blood in my urine when I go to the bathroom.I have an appointment on thursday with the urologist but this has me in a lot of stress. Do you have any idea?
Hello and welcome to HCM. You should not worry about the it, but blood in urine is not normal.You're doing the right thing to get a check-up with a Urologist. If you go with certain test reports, he will be able to start treatment. The tests to be done are urine culture,blood sugar,s.creatinine,PSA and a Ultrasound scan of abdomen. Drink 10-12 glasses liquids daily.
