Did they do a urine culture? A bladder or kidney infection can produce red blood cells. A cystoscopy may be performed in the office to look inside the bladder with a small telescopic instrument to check for bladder tumors and general appearance of bladder lining. Kidney tests such as xrays may also be in order if bladder is not the source of the bleeding. A kidney biopsy would only be done if a growth was present on xrays.

RBC's in urine are not uncommon. First, if you are female, your period may affect this. If you are not there are various other things from a urinary infection, trauma from insertion of a catheter, kidney infections, or more serious issues. I am assuming your Dr. has ruled out (tested for minor things like I said) and now feels a biopsy is needed. He also can do some blood tests (CBC, Chem screen,24 hour urine collection) which he has probably done. Make sure everything else is checked an talk openly with your Dr. before a biopsy or whatever else he wants to do. Also, please be aware that almost 90% of biopsys are negative so don't get to scared yet. Good luck.

tough question... could be infection, kidney stone... if you're not comfortable jumping into a biopsy - get a 2nd opinion from a nephrologist - kidney specialty.
