Blood in urine - linked to pump use?

User

I’m now 14 months post op. I’ve just had my 3rd psa test post op - <0.001 so as good as it gets. By coincidence I’ve also just had a regular health MOT with my GP. My urine sample had trace blood in both samples. GP is mystified as there’s no sign of a UTI or other issues. The only thing he thinks it could be is linked to the pump use for ED. I’m having another urine test after laying off the pump for a week to see if that is the issue if not he will refer me back to urology. Anyone else had similar issues? Thanks

Thanks - I had a break from the pump re tested and same result. The GP has now referred me back to Urology and I have an appointment this week for further tests which sound eye watering! He was mystified and said if my records had not shown I had had my prostrate removed he would have suspected prostrate issues! Oh well will find out more in the next few weeks.

Me too. I was still in the recovery room. 😉
