What Causes Blood In Urine?

I had an episode of blood in my urine which actually prevented me from urinating. My physician took a urine sample and gave me CIPRO. There have been no more incidents (about 5 days preceding the blocked urine, small clots of blood were being discharged). A urine specimen was taken and the culture was negative. What is the likely diagnosis? I am a 70 year old, white male who had a partial prostatectomy about 8 years ago after two years of dealing with BPH. Thanks for the benefit of your thinking!
