Should I go to the ER for blood in my urine?
Depends on how much blood and how long you have had this problem. Really best to go to your personal physician. RB Thomas, MD READ MORE
What blood types are the hardest to get a transfusion for?
Type AB is considered the universal recipient, so you are good as long as you don't possess any unusual antibodies. I would say Type B would be the most difficult for receiving transfusions since B type is unusual. B type folks could receive O blood if no B is available. RB Thomas, MD READ MORE
High liver enzymes?
You are on medicines that may increase your enzymes. If still high and your doctors are clueless, they may need to have your liver biopsied. There are more specialized blood tests that may answer some questions. Good luck. RB thomas, MD READ MORE

It probably could, but I am not sure. Speak to a nephrologist. RB Thomas, MD READ MORE
