What Does Blood In Urine While Suffering From Cysts In Kidneys Indicate?
Thank you! I have had a C T scan which revealed lesions of less than 1 cm on both my kidneys. The P A said they appear to be cysts. She also said due to the small amount of blood in my 2 previous urine samples and the pain in my left side/back area she wants me to see a Urologist. I am willing to do this and will be contacting my local hospital for this appointment later this morning. However, I know how most drs NEVER tell you the truth and tend to beat around the bush meanwhile performing a zillion tests that cost a fortune. Due to the info I have so far I am concerned I may have kidney cancer from what I have been able to find on the net. Do you agree? If so, what will happen to my body if I chose not to treat it? I don t want to move to Oregon.........My Email is: YYYY@YYYY Thank you!
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The blood on urine is caused from infection with or without stone and cancer. You should meet a urologist for further investigation and treatment options. Anyway I think if you have cancer is better to treat it in order to increase survival. If you don't treat it survival rate is very low.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
