Has anyone had trouble with blood in your urine, quite a bit from taking
mtx?  They can't find any other reason and the doctor has said that he has
read this can do that. I would think they would have some sort of test that
would tell them this. I am feeling like a guinea pig.
Thanks

All they have told me is I have Ic and all the other tests seem normal. I am
going in for a biopsy of the uterus because I have been having a period now
for over 2 months, but I know that the blood in the urine is not from that,
they did a catheder to determine if there was blood in the urine.

Becky,

No problems with this for me on the mtx, but hope they can figure out
what is going on for you!

Becky no experience with the mtx so don't know. Just wanted you to know I
was thinking of you. I hope the biopsy comes out ok. I had one about 2-3 yrs
ago. So I feel for you with the waiting game to find out what is going on.

It has been a while since I was on mtx but I haven't heard anything
about it causing blood in the urine.  I also have ic.  Blood in my
urine is what led to my diagnosis, long before I was on mtx.  It is
quite possible that the ic is what is causing your problem.  I hope
all your testing goes well.

Prayers and healing wishes

Have you been taking a med called cytoxin?  I had a similar experience, but
the cause was cytocin.
