I'm taking a few weeks off. Car accident, hematoma possible, gave the cat to a rescue. I need to deal with real life.

As in I'm going to be staying home and eating salad.

Yeah. I'll explain this more another time.

Hematoma is not the correct term. Hematuria is the word you are wanting. A hematoma (US spelling) or haematoma (UK spelling) is a localized collection of blood outside the blood vessels, due to either disease or trauma including injury or surgery[1] and may involve blood continuing to seep from broken capillaries. A hematoma is initially in liquid form spread among the tissues including in sacs between tissues where it may coagulate and solidify before blood is reabsorbed into blood vessels. An ecchymosis is a hematoma of the skin larger than 10mm.[2]

They may occur among/within many areas such as skin and other organs, connective tissues, bone, joints and muscle.

A collection of blood (or even a hemorrhage) may be aggravated by anticoagulant medication (blood thinner). Blood seepage and collection of blood may occur if heparin is given via an intramuscular route; to avoid this, heparin must be given intravenously or subcutaneously.

The final test results and the doctor's verdict was beginning stages of a complicated UTI and hematuria. I have to see the specialist. They don't know what caused the bleeding to start in the first place but I am taking a second round of antibiotics. The first was amoxicillin (low dose) five day course and the second is cephalexin 500 mgs ten day treatment.

I had developed a fever and bodily shock. It's possible stress, a virus I've had, the car accident... anything or all of the stuff has contributed to it, but I won't know til after I see the specialist. Yay for that.... not.
