Why My Nephew Is Still Urinating Blood?
My nephew has been peeing blood for over a year. He's 18 and has a hemoglobin level of six.(I think that's the term) he's getting iron infusions periodically and since this last test, they're admitting him for a week of infusions. Is it normal not to improve in all this time? We're worried we aren't aggressive enough in questioning doctors and seeking answers. What should we do?
