What Causes Blood In Urine?

default
Posted on Thu, 25 Aug 2016
Question: Hello, I am a diabetic and have a very low T level. I believe the last T test results were (50). I have had lower back and hip discomfort for about a month now maybe closer to two months. When it started I was peeing blood and it was very difficult to start peeing. I thought it was a kidney stone. The Dr. at Urgent care done xrays and did not see anything. He diagnosed it as an infection and prescribed meds. The blood in the urine cleared to the point that it was barely noticeable but I continued to have the discomfort. I have not been sexually active for three years but in the last two weeks I have felt the sensation of an orgasm while sleeping. The sensation was not painful and actually felt normal. It was intense enough to wake me up. What concerns me is that I would run to the bathroom but even though it felt as if I had released a serum stream nothing came out. Is this something related to cancer?
