Blood in urine with clots

Hi All,


I'm coming up to 7 years in January since radical removal followed by 33 doses of radiation.I've never really had control of waterworks, but it was slowly getting better. I've had several cystoscopy appointments without problems.In October I had another with biopsy's taken from bladder while I was under sedative. Thankfully no further Cancer. I have since been put back 6 years with major leakage. In the last 2 weeks I have been peeing gallons of blood plus thick clots. I saw my Oncologist last week who I see every 4 months PSA continues to rise slowly with latest at 1.13. He says he's not overly worried with small rises but has now referred me back to Urology due to blood and clots. I'm leaking and bleeding and back in the waiting room!! Has anyone else experienced similar problems? Would love to know if only to put my mind to rest.


Love to All keep on fighting.

Barry, I started passing lots of blood clots , debris and tissue but that was a few months after the completion of salvage RT. That was eventually diagnosed as radiation cystitis. I doubt it is connected with your salvage RT.


Thanks Chris

Hi Chris thanks for that. 


My salvage radiation was 5 years ago and I'd had blood over the years. I was also told it was radiation cystitis until they took biopsys from bladder thinking cancer may have spread gladly it hadn't. It's only in the last 2 weeks lot's more blood and thick clots have appeared. More frightening than before.
