What Causes Blood In Urine While On Lasix?

I take 20mg x 2 daily of lasix. I started seeing blood in my urine last week and stop taking lasix. The blood tapered off so I started lasix. This am I had very rustic colored urine (blood?). Also, I m having discomfort in the perineum (?) area, which I started feeling during the night. What should I do? I have had prior enlarged prostate.
