I've been on prednisone for almost 4 years and never had, or read about blood in the urine being associated with it. I think it is best to call your physician about that.

No, it does NOT cause blood in urine. You should see yout Doctor about that.

I have been off steroids for nearly a year and while I feel much improved I am far from better yet. Lost 2 stone of the weight I put on during that period.Have a mixture now of good and bad days, good days more so though.

I think you should see a doctor for advice, prednisilone does suppress your immunity so any infection can become serious much more quickly.

The last thing you need on top of PMR is problems with your kidneys.
