I see drops of blood in my urine. doc advices us to do cystoscopy. Will that be necessary ?

Thank you doctors for answering my query.My daughter has no other symptoms apart from dark colored[orangish] urine with visible blood drops in it. It has been 10 days now and there is no change.she has a habit of withholding urine for long time [like most kids]. Our physican adviced us to consult a padiatric, as there are no urologist here.The padiatric told us to wait for 3 months and if after 3 months blood is still seen then to go for biopsy of kidney[for checking].

Here there are no good doctors and most of the people get wrong diagnosis and suffer from the consequences.Those who can afford prefer to go oversees for checking and treatment.Please do kindly look into her reports and advice us what to do.We are very much worried.

I will try to send u her full blood report as well. Please answer soon if possible.If this continues wont she loose much blood?What should we do to stop the blood?Kindly advice us what to do next.

Thanks sir Naveen for your advices and support.The blood in her urine has stopped by the grace of Almighty. I have also sent her reports to a paediatric of a neighbouring country .In the meantime I am posting her blood report.Please do check it out if possible.I also request other specialists/urologists/paediatric/hematologist to kindly give an opinion if possible.

Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic Forum
Blood (RBCs) in urine and iron deficiency anaemia is common in Beta thalassemia minor patients. I do not think so cystoscopy is required, as the Ultrasound of the abdomen is normal. But discuss this with your physician and then proceed.
All the best.

welcome to healthcaremagic,
blood in urine can be worrisome for any parents.You need to see if there are any leucocytes in urine examination. Also try to find out what type of rbc's are seen on urine examination. does your child have any other symptoms. cystoscopy as investigation is the last to be done and plenty needs to be done prior to proceeding for that.

Hi,

Welcome again to HealthcareMagic Forum,
I think, iron is not advisable in Thallasemia patients. Please do consult a good hematologist regarding this. Rest of the results are almost ok. Good Luck.
