I have been peeing blood for 5 days, which has been progressively thickening and getting darker. The ER did blood work and found high WBCs, indicating a UTI. However, the urine analysis was negative for everything except blood and high protein. I am immunocompromised and have low back pain and intermittent severe abdominal pain. Should I be concerned, and what should I do next?
