Avatar f tn Are you asking for drug reasons?? They check baby poop for that. They check the placenta our to make sure they got it all. But never heard of testing it.
Avatar n tn I had a miscarriage on 2/22 and my HCG level is still at 10 as of April 8. I did a urine test at the dr's office same day on April 8 with negative result. Today, 4/13 I did a home pregnancy test and it's positive. What's this mean? is there a difference from the urine test given at the lab and urine test at home?
Avatar n tn Your test results show that your kidney disease is CKD2, you should pay attention to your disease, if the kidney disease continues to develop, you can only dialysis, kidney transplant or traditional Chinese medicine detoxification and kidney treatment.
Avatar n tn I took lab test, after lab test. Finally, I was sent to a uroligist. I explained my problem to him, and he instantly knew the problem. When most people sleep at night, they release a chemical from their brain that keeps them from obsorbing the urine back in there body overnight.
Avatar f tn Your body has to be full of the hormone to start getting rid of it thru urine and thats when a home pregnancy test comes positive.
Avatar m tn 1) Technically your doctor is wrong or you misunderstood; absence of WBC in urine does not rule out gonorrhea or chlamydia. However, as just explained, if your STD risk is low, then testing may not be necessary. 2,3) This sounds like you are describing the dipstick results for urinalysis. They often are weakly positive if the urine is quite concentrated -- for example, if you had not been taking in lots of fluids in the hours before testing.
Avatar f tn So today I went to get an std check at a clinic in Tanzania, I told the guy testing to test me for syphilis, he took a urine sample and it came back positive. This clinic and lab were really dirty and the lab looked like it wasn't well equipped, but it was supported by various govt and NGOs for testing HIV. After some research I found out that syphilis is detected through a blood sample, nothing about urine.

I have hypothyroidism and PCOS. Im hoping that the rash is just a symptom of the thyroid problem, but I'm starting to get really worried about it. It's not contagious, because if it were my husband would be covered in them. He has NONE and he's known me since before the rash even started.
Avatar f tn I barley pass urine and its really low pressure, I go to the toilet more than once within minuets to pass the regular quantity of pee, sometimes I feel some pain from the side abdomen it's like someone is yanking on my The ureter, I feel pain in my kidneys as well as burning sensation after I'm done, could this be explained?
1129232 tn?1360800358 They ran a series of blood tests and did a urine pregnancy test which came out negative. The dr thinks I have anxiety and prescribed Xanax. I explained to him my concern of taking it should I be pregnant and he said but you're not. I said that wouldn't the test he gave me be too early to tell? He said that test can detect 3 days from conception. If I'm only 7 dpo I probably haven't even implanted yet- correct? When the dr says conception he means implantation right?
432737 tn?1358549432 Sounds like you got a qualitative test, which basically only gives you a positive when the levels are over a certain amount (as opposed to the quantitative, which gives you an actual number). But, hey, you never know. I think HCG shows up faster in the blood steam than in urine, so even if your urine test at the doctor's was negative, there might have been more HCG in your blood at the time. I'm kinda surprised, though, that they didn't give you a quantitative test...
Avatar f tn They are also looking to see if you may be showing signs of diabetes or dehydration as well.
Avatar m tn Don't worry about the silly test. If it's a urine test the medications will show up in your urine, especially the methadone. It has a very long half life. Please reconsider the way you are taking your medication and be honest with your self and the doctors. You will be much better off in the short and long run. good luck.
Avatar f tn I took a urine test at the health department and was positive. I'm 8 weeks today and haven't had morning sickness. Only symptoms are tiredness. Is this normal?
Avatar n tn Would a standard urine test show HIV or does it have to be a specific test. Went to the urologist today and he said everything was fine but would it show HIV?
1325672 tn?1290084214 Pain Clinics differ on when and how they do urine drung testing. I think Sherry has had only one urine drug test in many months. My physician does not do any unless she is suspicious. Other PM Clinics test before the narcotic is ordered and then every month. The contract that you may sign or have signed will spell all that out for you. Please read it carefully dear. Don't be afraid to ask the nurse if you if you have questions or ask the physician.
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.
