A 13-year-old, previously healthy male initially presented to the emergency department for one week of “dark-colored” urine without any associated flank or abdominal pain, dysuria or fevers. His vital signs were within acceptable range. Laboratory testing was significant for “brown” colored urine with 3+ blood, 4+ protein and 1+ leukocytes, along with an elevated creatinine kinase to 507 U/L. His complete blood cell count and comprehensive metabolic panel were normal. His findings were attributed to rhabdomyolysis and he was given intravenous fluids and discharged home. His urine returned to normal at home, but he again developed “Coca-Cola colored” urine about two months later that was associated with bilateral “pelvic pain at the back”. This episode of hematuria lasted for an additional week, at which point his primary care physician ordered a kidney ultrasound and referred the patient to Nephrology.The patient was asymptomatic during his visit with Nephrology with an initial work-up that included normal fractions of complement (C3, C4), antineutrophilic antibodies, double stranded DNA antibody, anti-streptolysin titer, coagulation studies, urine calcium/urine creatinine ratio, and negative antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies. His urine dip revealed 3+ blood and 3+ protein along with an elevated protein to creatinine ratio of 0.82. Urine microscopy revealed 50–100 red blood cells per high powered field. His kidney ultrasound
