Had Pain In Right Side Of Back. Did CT Scan, Normal. High WBC Seen. Treating For Kidney Infection, Though Urinalysis Clean.

I was recently in the hospital for pain in right side of my back and CT scan came back normal, but blood work showed high WBC and they are treating me as if I have a kidney infection even though my urinalysis was clean. I went today to get copies of all of my tests that were ran in the ER and I have some questions and concerns about some of the things on my blood work.

what is the WBC count? r you male/female? treatment depends on your gender. WBC count high? well if your UA does not show it, then it is unlikely a UTI. please do raise your concern's with me when you have the blood work results with you.
