Suggest Treatment For A Kidney Infection
I was diagnosed with a kidney infection almost 3 weeks ago. had 2 different types of antibiotics, and it seemed to have past... pain has returned not as extreme, so I went to a walk in clinic. they doctor says there in no infecton showing but there is blood and protein in my urine. Wondering what can cause this, and can it be related to my endometriosis that i was diagnosed with in 2008.

Hello
Thanks for query .
Based on the facts that you ave posted your urine analysis has revealed presence of protein and blood in urine .It is not related to endometriosis that you had in 2008.
Presence of blood and urine signifies disease of Glomeruli ( Urine filtering unit in kidney) and needs to be investigated
Consult qualified Nephrologist for clinnical assessment and get following basic tests done to establish diagnosis
1) Urine culture
2)Estimation of total proteins excreted in 24 sample of urine
3)Renal function tests
4)Blood coagulation profile
5) Estimation of C reactive protein
6) Microscopic examination of urine to detect presence of Dismorphic RBCs
7) Ultrasound scanning of abdomen .
Further treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
