Took 5yr old Lola to Dr. B's office because we thought she might have a UTI. So they took Urine and just called them and got results back. Doctor says she has no UTI,crystals and her Urine pH is fine and only found that she showed inflammation in the urine and I asked what that meant and he said that her white blood cells were high.They gave me meds and say to continue to take them and see how she feels after she finishes her meds. Anybody else ever been told about the inflammation in the urine?
Hope the meds help.
Not doubting you but could it have been said...
that she showed "infection" in her urine, which was another way of saying she has an elevated WBC. The infection is somewhere in her body, but its showing by sluffing off WBC's in her urine (rather than, perhaps, an abcess or similar target location of where the infection is). I agree that she should finish the entire round of antibiotics and then have her urine retested...or unless you find another symptom of where the problem might be. Also, be sure she is drinking enough water so that the infection flushes out of her body easily.
