Blood in urine

Had Prostate removed on 2/7/2012. Had Foley removed 2/15/2012. Now every time I have a Bowel Movement I had see blood coming from my urine. I possibly strained a few days ago and since than Ive seen blood at every B/M. Do you think I should see the surgeon. I am also getting up 8 times a night to urinate.

Re: Blood in urine

I had blood for at almost 2 weeks after my procedure. My face was very pale. The bleeding finally stopped. I hope yours clears up too. I thought about going to the doc to see if I needed iron pills or something but never got around to it.

I also was getting up often to urinate. It gradually got better and after a couple of months I was back to normal

Re: Blood in urine

The fact that you are getting up 8 times a night is of concern. If it doesn't seem to be getting better phone your surgeon and tell him the problem. You can damage your kidneys if you are getting a urinary blockage.

Re: Blood in urine

I saw my surgeon he told me not to worry it should go away in a couple of weeks. Two days ago it stopped, now I have blood in the stool not the urine. Anyone else have this happen?
