HI Thanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.
Urine Urgency could be due to Urine Infection , Uncontrolled Diabetes or Prostatic Enlargement . Since your Urine Culture shows no bacterial growth , urine infection is ruled . SO we are left with Uncontrolled Diabetes or Prostatic Enlargement. I advise you to get your blood sugars tested and if high ask your doctor to adjust the dosage of Diabetic medications. Also get Ultrasound Abdomen Pelvis done to see if you have any prostatic Enlargement .
High WBC means infection but I need to know how high it is . Kindly upload the report .
Will be looking forward for your reply .
