Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 Hi , I once had symptoms of a Urinary Tract Infection, and my doc said that protein in the urine was a sign of this. There are other things it can be though, I'm sure others will have an idea. Sandi--'s Mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 , Other than the leukocytes (which I thought was maybe a sign of infection), I would say dehydration. My kids both get protein in the urine if they are dehydrated. I hope others have more of an idea than I do. PS. When is 's scope? I am really glad they are checking him for EE. FYI if he has it and you get exact results, like numbers of eos etc. and you still have problems, you may want to email DR. Putnam to see how he would proceed.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 Re: White blood cells in urine Someone with a medical background told me (I can't remember who) that inflammation can result in white blood cells being released. There may be inflammation without infection due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps your doctor may have some suggestions. Hope this helps. --Martha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2001 Report Share Posted December 14, 2001 - who said no UTI? Leukocytes, blood and protein are all signs of a UTI. Hopefully the urine was also cultured. That should give you the final result. Sounds like a UTI to me though.
