HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Blood in the urine can occur during treatment so this is the likely cause.
Cystitis is inflammation of the bladder and this can occur due to other causes than infection.
It is possible that the inflammation is due to the treatment that you are receiving.
I hope this helps
