My piggie was diagnosed with a small bladder stone last month. I started her on shilintong a week later. This morning, her urine looked pink, which it hadn't before. I took her in to see the vet; as her regular vet is off duty today, my piggie was seen by the vet's partner. Today's x-ray showed that the stone is larger than it was a month ago and may require surgery. Also, prior to today, my piggie's regular vet took urine samples by squeezing my piggie's bladder. Today, this different vet used a needle. (I didn't know this was her protocol, as my piggie was taken to another room for what I thought was only an x-ray).<br><br>Since the vet visit an hour ago, my piggie has been spotting bright red blood (in addition to the pink urine). Is this normal after a needle is inserted into the bladder? I am very concerned.<br><br>Thanks in advance for any wisdom. It's Saturday and the vet's office has closed for the weekend... <br><p>
