I had unprotected sex with my girlfriend, after which I experienced a burning sensation while urinating and yellowish penile discharge. I got my penile discharge tested at a lab, and the report states No gonococci seen, few gram negative coccobacilli seen, and large number of pus cells seen. What does this mean? I consulted a doctor and took medication, and I have recovered, but I am still concerned because I do not understand my report. I have attached a copy of my report.

This suggests a bacterial urethritis, likely non gonococcal. Gram negative cocco bacilli may include organisms like E. coli. Large pus cells indicate active infection. Since symptoms improved with antibiotics, the infection is likely resolved, but safe sex practices and follow up STD screening are advisable.

I am feeling very weak and there is constant swelling in my body. My blood report shows epithelial cells present at 8 to 10. Is this normal?

I am experiencing a red rash outside the vagina along with painful urination. I had a urine test, which was positive for a bacterial infection. I also did a TORCH 8 test, and the result for CMV IgG is reactive at 285?U/mL. Could you please help me understand what exactly I am suffering from?

I am 8 and a half months pregnant. Today I visited my doctor. I have a little swelling on my feet, a light burning sensation while urinating, and a frequent urge to urinate. She suggested me some tests. Please see my report and help me.
