Avatar f tn Go to the doctor to be safe. It could be nothing, or it could be an infection. Maybe you have a UTI?? try drinking LOTS and I mean lots of water. Also try cranberry juice(not cranberry juice cocktail) real cranberry juice with no sugar. And see how you feel. It's very common to get a UTI during pregnancy. Then next time you see your OB, ask them to test your urine for a UTI. If you have one, you'll get antibiotics and all will be fine.
Avatar n tn But over the past few months i have had 3 CT scans, one VCU test, and numerous cultures. All showed nothing but the office urine test showed a large number of white blood cells in my urine....that usually indicates an infection. Also a little bit of blood. I am at my wits end here. I keep on going to these doctors and they dont have a clue! The only thing they have not investigated as far as i know is IC(painful bladder syndrom).
Avatar f tn Hello R1020, Welcome to MedHelp's Pain Mangement Forum. I am glad that you found us and took the time to share your concerns. I highly doubt the bilirubin and protein in your urine will change the drug urine analysis. I wouldn't be overly concerned about it. I produce a lot of kidney stones also. It does not make one in greater danger of kidney failure to my knowledge. Your family history must be considered of course, if it is relevant.
Avatar f tn I had my first doctor appt today since my mc in august AND since finding out I'm pregnant again...I have been having unbearable back pain and so I mentioned it to my doctor and he said it doesn't sound muscular because heat, massage and stretching isn't helping, he said it could be something wrong with my kidneys, he got a urine test & blood work ordered which I will find out next week the results...has anyone experienced anything like this?
Avatar m tn hi all, i have no experience with kidneys tests and since i take an antiviral which can damage kidneys and i found albumine in urine in last test i ask if results are very bad or it can be normal to detect some from time to time albumine in urine 3mg/dl (0-2) cystatin C 0.98 (0.56-0.95) after i took an antibiotic in feb 2015 my creatinine clearance lowered to 88-90 (min 80) and creatinine got higher to 1.1-1.2 (before 0.8-0.9).
Avatar m tn Around two months ago I started seeing a nephrologist to see if the blood is coming from the kidneys, and around the same time my UA test started showing protein in my urine. Bellow are the results of my last UA and a 24hr urine protein. With this results, Is the protein in my urine secondary to the gross hematuria or am I having protein in my urine because some how my kidneys are not working right??? Any help will be really appreciated.
Avatar f tn Hello there, Medullary sponge kidney is a condition in which cysts develop in the urine collecting ducts and tubules of one or both kidneys. The exact cause is not known. The common symptoms are pain in the back, haematuria, excessive amount of calcium in the urine. The complications are kidney stones, infection and kidney failure. Treatment is usually symptomatic. It is best to consult an urologist and get your doubts clarified. Do keep me posted with more queries. Best wishes and regards!
7831604 tn?1399711007 I went to hospital and they thought it was my kidneys, they did a urine test and blood tests looking for infections because the pain came on so suddenly it woke me from my sleep and I was in tears! It turns out it was just a muscle, thank goodness!
Avatar n tn Im in the UK and it seems the first step is the urine test according to my NHS walk in centre but you can ask for the blood test straight away if your really worried....but I think that depends on any symptoms. Ive heard different opinions on the urine test though, I have been told that its no good by one or two people but then afew others have said its fine for an intial check. Ive had a urine test and it was ok so Im just curious, as it was clear is that it? am I clear for diabetes? thanks.
Avatar f tn Also my doc should habe felt something as she said originally it was kidneys she could feel. Well they took urine and just tested for infection ehich there wasnt but they didnt send it to lab which i thought they would to be honest.
Avatar f tn s a kidney problem since my albumin is low, however I think I may have some kind of infection considering my liver enzymes are high, my absolute eosinophils are at 1163....15.3%, and in my urine test my leukocyte esterase is 2+, WBC are 10-20, and there are a few bacteria. What are your thoughts?
Avatar n tn ct scan, xrays, urine test, cbc, all done 2 times each nothing.....urologist checked out test, nothing, but urologist said he thought it may be skeletal muscle....ache is back in left kidney area, cramping in left abdomen happens when i urinate, but goes away, stomach bloating, but yet all test have shown nothing, no blockage, no stones, kidneys look normal, no uti, blood work super..so now what do i do? anyone out there have the occurance happen to them?
Avatar m tn very difficult to say if you have kidneys damage, there are no test with sensibility high enough.study for hope posted some tests not easy to find commercially with good sensibility but don t remember all of them. creat clearance by 24hrs urine collection as a minimum to know if you have a decline in function also what is your blood creatinine before starting nucs and kinects under nucs did you test creatinine microalbumine ratio?
8521365 tn?1398618067 studyforhope indicated creatinine to albumine ratio as the most predictive hbv infects and damages kidneys too so it is important to check them, it is not tdf to damage kidneys but the kidneys to be damaged before the therapy starts.
Avatar n tn Diagnostic tests that may be performed include Urinalysis, Urine culture, X-rays of the kidneys, Cystoscopy, IVP, Abdominal ultrasound and CT scan of the abdomen. The treatment will depend on the cause of the blood in the urine.I sincerely suggest you to consult a urologist for this. Hope it helps.Take care and regards.

209987 tn?1451935465 My 3 year old had very cloudy urine this morning. Called his pediatrician and was lucky enough to get him in right away. They did a urine sample at the office and said that there was no infection but there was blood. He said that there were no white blood cells...which means that his body isn't trying to fight anything...right? He prattled on for a bit saying it could be a cyst, something more serious, or something very serious to really worry about.
Avatar f tn When both blood and protein are present it often indicates an inflammatory state that is causing the kidneys to have problems. When blood and protein are persistently in the urine, have him evaluated further by a kidney specialist or a nephrologist. A 24 hour urine test may be indicated. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn frequently n urgently, urine test carried out n treated 4 a urine infection. New year same thing back but this time small amount of blood wen urinating n pains in abdomen, again same test n diagnosis. Since then several urine tests carried out all showin signs of infection. Wa infection am not sure as that is all i was told. Prescribed more antibiotics. Early march i went 4 a std check up n it came back as positive 4 chlamydia.
Avatar f tn it just means that you have a lot of wastes in your urine. that your kidneys are working harder to get the waste products out. if you drink more water/clear drinks it will help to clear out your kidneys and the urine will be less pungeant and colored.
Avatar n tn There is a tiny flap that prevents urine from going back into the kidneys and sometimes it opens and pushes urine back into the kidneys which he didn't have. So now we are waiting my son is 19 months old right now and one kidney has completely fixes itself and the other is only a mild case. Usually they wait it out to see if it will correct itself. My son is a very happy healthy kid and isn't in any pain.
