Hi, thanks for reading this, this is actually rather hard to discuss and I don't know why I feel so.... ashamed about it I guess.

I've looked at the information on the site, comparing symptoms and such to give an idea of what it may be that is causing me issues, and I feel it's a UTI.

I'm more concerned by the fact that yesterday I was completely fine, with no issues at all, but then I woke up during the night, about 3am, and went to urinate.  At first, it was fine, steady stream, slight color, but then I felt a sudden pain, and I couldn't finish, but at the end, I didn't notice straight away, I was producing bloody urine.  Since 3am, I have been nearly a dozen times, each time the same issue, same problems, intense pain, added pressure as I want to finish but the pain stops me, then the blood droplets.  I have contacted my GP concerning this, and they would like a urine sample, which I'll be getting to them tomorrow unless I decide to just cut my penis off and be done with the pain.

But since that call, and my latest trip to the bathroom, I am more worried by the fact I had to basically pull a blood clot from myself after I stopped urinating.  Adding this to the symptoms wasn't exactly easy, but it appears Bladder Cancer is higher on the list than before.

I am severely worried, but I am hoping it's just a UTI, and was wondering if anyone else has had this happen with a UTI, seeing as this is a sudden occurance and exceedinly painful.  Any advice, help, or information will be greatly appreciated.

    You definitely have symptoms of a Uti.

    I've had several of them and a few with blood.

    You must go to the emergency room when there is blood. When the bacteria is multiplying that quickly it can spread to your kidneys. Once the doctor prescribes you with antibiotics you will be fine. However I will advise you to start taking an all natural multivitamin and drinking a lot of water. You are more prone to uti more now since you have had one.

    Hope you get better.

      Thanks for the reply Sandy, I'm going in today to drop off sample, and I've started to take Centrum Multi-vitamin tablets, and I'm drinking 4-5 litres a day at the moment.  I would drink more but with the pain I keep stopping.

      I'll speak with the gp and see what he says, hard enough to get an appointment lol.
