The doctors found blood in my mothers urine. She has finished chemotherapy in the week of Dec 23rd. Is this usually a side affect of chemo? She can not see it and it is a trace amount.She had a CT scan and nothing showed up. Dang it! Does this ever end.

    Blood in urine
    Happened to me in May 2010 - just a serenditous result. We repeated and all was fine. Sometimes just wiping too hard can cause that. My onc said it is NOT chemo related. (My internist who did the test tried to chalk it off to that - PO'd by onc who thought that ridiculous, but repeated and we got a negative test.

    Okay I will try to relax. My
    Okay I will try to relax. My dad had bladder cancer. That is probably the reason I am concerned. By the way I could relax better if we finished our discussion about Dali. It is a positive distraction. Lol
