What Could High Ketone Levels, Abdominal Pain And Blood In The Urine Indicate?

I am not diabetic, but I have had two recent tests that showed high levels of ketones. I also recently had two days of terrible abdominal pain with blood in the urine. Considering that I have only 1 kidney (the other was donated in 2003) what are the possible diagnosis for something like this.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

If your cells don't get enough glucose, your body burns fat for energy instead. This produces a substance called ketones, which can show up in your blood and urine.

So, I would also recommend consuming more carbohydrates. For the abdominal pain, I recommend you to take Buscopan three times a day.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
