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.

Creatinine level of 1.19 and uric acid level of 7.4 are slightly above the normal range.

Can diabetes affect my kidney health?
With time, raised blood sugar can damage blood vessels in the kidneys as well as nephrons making them not work as well as they should. Many people with diabetes also develop high blood pressure, which can damage kidneys too.

I've been diagnosed with albumin in my urine, and I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. My blood urea and creatinine levels are at 1.2 and 40, respectively. Are these levels risky, and what steps should I take next?
In conclusion, albumin in urine is an early sign that should not be ignored, especially if you're already dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, since your kidney function tests are still normal, this is a good sign, and with proper management, the risk of kidney damage can be minimized.
