Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have blood in urine while taking Vimovo and Lorazepam for sciatic nerve pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like urinary tract infections , kidney infections , bladder or kidney stone , enlarged prostate or strenuous exercise . I would suggest you to consult urologist for proper examination . Doctor may order urine test along with ultrasound and kidney function test to confirm the diagnosis and rule out other conditions . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with anti inflammatory . Doctor may also recommend laparoscopic surgery for stone . For now drink plenty of water and stay calm . your can continue taking prescribed medicines , because they are not known to cause such effects .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
