What Causes Rust Colored Urination?
I had bladder cancer tumor removed approx 14 years ago with standard injection of chems (BCG) into bladder along with normal cystoscopies. Last followup cysto was abt 9 months ago with nothing abnormal. Then, just recently within last 2 weeks, noticed rust colored flakes about size of corn flakes with normal colored urination. Should I be concerned? JOE
