In my urine test, they found RBC 2530 hpf and Ive been having a really high fever ranging from 102 to 103.4 along with a terrible headache at the back of my head. Do you think the fever is causing the RBC in the urine or is it the other way around? Ive already seen two doctors. One asked for all blood and urine tests and the other suggested another urine test. Im currently taking Switch 200, Aceclofenac, and Paracitamol Alock P as prescribed, but Im still waiting for the results of the second urine test because of the holidays. Its been 5 days now and the fever just keeps coming back as soon as the meds wear off. Even the Paracetamol isnt really helping with the headache. Ibugesic Plus helps a bit, but only for about 5 hours. Nothing seems to work, any thoughts on what could be happening here?

Could indicate a possible urinary tract infection (UTI) or kidney infection. The fever is likely not directly caused by the RBC in your urine, but rather both symptoms may be due to an underlying infection. Since your symptoms are persisting and the fever returns when the effect of the medicine wears off, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. If the current treatment is not providing adequate relief, your doctor may need to reassess your condition and consider adjusting your medication regimen or ordering additional tests. It is crucial to complete the prescribed course of antibiotics and continue taking the medications as directed until you receive further guidance from your healthcare provider. In the meantime, make sure to stay well-hydrated, get plenty of rest, and monitor your symptoms closely. If your fever persists or worsens, seek medical attention promptly.

I'm trying to understand my recent kidney test results. My creatinine is at 0.8 mgdL and my urea level is 21 mgdL. Could you help me figure out what my BUN-to-creatinine ratio is and what it means for my health? I'm kind of worried about the effects it might have.
Your BUNCreatinine ratio can be calculated by dividing the BUN value by the creatinine value. In your case, the BUNCreatinine ratio is 210.8, which equals 26.25. A normal BUNCreatinine ratio is typically between 10:1 and 20:1. A ratio higher than this range may indicate dehydration, gastrointestinal bleeding, or a diet high in protein. A ratio lower than this range may indicate liver disease or malnutrition. In your case, with a BUNCreatinine ratio of 26.25, it is slightly higher than the normal range. This could be due to dehydration or a high-protein diet. It is important to stay hydrated and consider adjusting your diet if necessary.

I'm really worried about my daughter's health. She was born with just one kidney, and even though shes been sticking to strict diet and lifestyle changes, her creatinine levels are still going up. It's now at 2.3. Plus, she's dealing with high blood pressure. Currently, she's on Olmezest 40, Moxovas 0.3, and Folvite. What can we do to help manage her increasing creatinine levels and high BP? Looking for any advice or steps we can take.
