Why would any of that affect my urinalysis?
I have had a colonoscopy n endoscopy. My pain concern at this time is why is there wbc ranging from 20-50 and leukocyte estarase 3+ showing up in the urinalysis.
I’m not concerned with my MALS and it was treated n even have received a stent.
Again main concern is the urinalysis with the results posted additionally the albumin being high. I know albumin rise in possible liver issues.

Brief Answer:
Urine Analysis results indicate UTI .
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for follow up .
Presence of 25-30 leukocytes ,leukocyte esterase ,and albumin suggest active infection of Urinary Tract (UTI).
Get urine culture done to look out the organisms causing infection and their antibiotic sensitivity so that you can take appropriate antibiotic as per culture report .
In the mean while you can start taking Cefixime along with urinary antiseptic like Nitrofurantoin twice daily and urine alkaliser thrice daily.Later on switch on to appropriate antibiotics as per culture report.
Thanks and Regards.
