Urologist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist, let me assure you, that it's advisable to see your Urologist, urgently. Blood in urine is not normal.
After catheter in place, you should consider definitive treatment for the cause.
Since you're on Flomax, i presume your Urologist has diagnosed prostate enlargement in your case. Hope your P.S.A., is normal.
Consider TURP treatment for removal of prostate gland.
If you've any other doubt, you may send it here in my name.
Wishing you well.
