Does Humira Cause Blood In Urine?

I had a UTI 2 weeks ago and my urine specimen showed small amount of bilirubin and blood in urine with an infection. After 2 weeks of antibiotics, the infection is cleared up but the bilirubin is now moderate, still have blood in urine, and have protein 30 mg. I am taking Humira and have been for 9 months. I am going off Humira immediately since it is not working that well. I am concerned about this. I have an appointment with my general practitioner Oct 7th after I have been off Humira for a few weeks. What could these results mean and could Humira be the cause of these abnormal results? Thank you, Traci
