Hey everyone!
I’m dealing with a major issue. I noticed some blood clots in my urine today, along with a lot of pain when I go. It was only a few drops, but I constantly feel like I have to pee.
I headed over to the urgent care clinic near my house to drop off a sample, and here are the results:
Protein: slight trace.
3-5 washed erythrocytes
2-4 fresh erythrocytes
5-8 leukocytes, some squamous epithelium, and bacteria.
Can anyone help me make sense of this? I know they haven't isolated the specific bacteria yet—I'll have to head to the hospital for that—but what does all this stuff about erythrocytes, protein, and epithelium actually mean?
If anyone knows, any help would be greatly appreciated.🙏
I honestly don't know if I can make it until tomorrow afternoon when I see my doctor. The pain is so bad I just want to sit down and cry.
