What other symptoms are present? It is good that recent urine test was negative which rules out any presence of infection. Other issues to consider include diabetes, pregnancy, anxiety, medication side effect, caffeine, bladder issues and even gynecological conditions like vaginitis. With regards to your high blood pressure, regular blood pressure monitoring and continue taking your hypertension medicines are highly recommended. Take care and do keep us posted.
I obviously have some sort of infection as each morning my urine is filled with what looks like mucus, puss etc. stringy (I checked on one of them with a q-tip and it was a little bloody). But I have never had any other sort of discharge except in my urine and maybe a little post drip after urination that I just figured was urine (but looked clear/orderless and had the consistency of water).

I recently got my urine test done with the military and they sent me a letter asking for a family doctor to re-interpret the results and/or do a new urine test. On the info sheet, 3 lines were highlighted and the results were given beside then:
Protein - 1+
Ketones - TRACE
Bilirubin - 2+
I'm stressing a bit because I did some research online and the articles said that it might be a kidney problem. With me trying to get into the Air Force I need to be physically and mentally healthy.
It take two days for the antibiotics to work so she should be feeling better. As long as she is drinking plenty of water it should have started clearing up by now. It is very important to flush the kidneys out very well if you have an infection. Not drinking enough even while on antibiotics will not help flush her kidneys out. Her pain may also be from straining to urinate or frequent urination.
Hi! First of all, thank you for taking the time to answer my question.
Here is the background info: So a few days ago, I experienced symptoms of an UTI. Frequent urination, burning, fatigue, some blood in cloudy urine. I recognized what it was immediately and the first thing I did was drink a TON of water and cranberry juice, as well as taking cranberry extract supplements with Vitamin C. Within less than 24 hours, my urine turned clear, the burning stopped, and there was no more fatigue.
The most common cause of red blood cells in the urine is a bladder infection. Other caused such as kidney stones, menstruation contamination of the sample, kidney disease, and bladder of kidney cancer. A microscopic urine analysis is usually done to confirm the presents of red blood cells and urine culture is often done to rule out infection. If red cells are present in significant numbers, a CT scan of the kidneys and bladder are done.
I've gone to the doctor for a urine test, he says there was nothing they found -- no UTI (I thought I had one).
Then I went to get an abdominal echo to check if there was anything wrong in the liver and kidneys -- doctor said those looked fine too.
I've been drinking plenty of water, yet my urine has been dark for weeks still. Dark yellow color.
I've had slight lower back pains on one side, but I can't tell if that's because my period is coming or a related symptom.
It could be a urinary tract infection. This needs to be treated before it turns into a kidney or bladder infection. You can drink more (lots more), use something like Ural which neutralises the urine to stop it burning, drink cranberry juice or cranberry tablets.
But if you are getting no relief within a short time of doing these things you probably need to go and see a doctor.
Nothing in your urine suggests that you have an infection. You can get infection ruled out (or confirmed) with a blood-test. Call your doctor and see if they'll perform a blood text and check for infection.
I would, however, suggest that you talk to a Urologist about the elevated Calcium Oxalate levels in your urine.
kidney damage, infection, or failure, displacement of the stoma and infections to the urinary tract, fever, hernia, urinary problems, chills or blood or pus in the urine. Aside from the increased fluid intake and emptying the bag often, Vitamin C supplements can prevent infection- and odor-causing bacteria from accumulating in the urine.
Take care and keep us posted.
Interestingly urine odor changes in menopause too. Urinary bladder infection and kidney infections do produce strong smelling urine. Another reason is dehydration. Strong ammonia smell is due to protein breakdown. A routine urine examination along with a urine culture will be able to detect the problem. Drink plenty of fluids and water and see if that helps. Also if you are on crash diets etc then protein breakdown can cause an ammonia smell. Also diet rich in protein can be the cause.
