blood in urine

[gthurma]

hello,

I have been having frequent urine infections and I have always had blood in the urine also. I do not have the normal symptom. I never know when I have the infections unless I go in to the doctor with some other problem and I would ask if I could be checked and I would always have one. I have had so many in the last year that they told me I needed to go see a urologist. I have gone and they said that I needed to have a catscan to see if I had bladder cancer. I do not have bladder cancer. I then just had a procedure done where they put a camera into the bladder and look around and that also come out fine. I still have blood in the urine and the urologist said that it is no big deal. I am not happy with his not to worry attidude. Am I over reacting?
