Supplement by Ron. Avoid even the beginning of constipation by 1. Taking Miralax daily and 2. Drinking more water than the recommended 64 ounces a day. Both are crucial steps in preventing bloody urine. If bloody urine occurs, immediately drink a large amount of water (30+ ounces) to prevent new clots and flush out any small ones. It takes about 5 minutes for the water you drink to get into the bladder. Try early urination. Success is when urine becomes clear.
