trace blood in urine?

[Len A.]

Had a company physical the other day. Sample of urine
required, Doctor told me that a trace amount of blood came
up on the test strip. Just so happens I had increased my
mileage that previous week from 30 to over 40 miles.
Question .... should I worry about this or is this normal
for this amount of running?

If that were the case, he'd test positive for trace
hemoglobin, not trace red blood cells. -- Josh

High blood pressure doesn't put trace blood in the
urine. -- Josh
