Question 1

Hi Doctor, my father has type 2 diabetes, and his blood sugar was 270 mg per dL. He is currently on medication for diabetes. Over the past month, he has been experiencing frequent urination at night along with a burning sensation. These symptoms have occurred 2 to 3 times and tend to go away while he is on antibiotics, but they return once the antibiotics are stopped. An ultrasound of the lower abdomen revealed grade I fatty liver, a right renal cyst (1.2 by 1.1 cm), and grade I prostate enlargement (1.6 by 1.5 cm). Doctors have suggested that his urinary symptoms might be related to his diabetes. However, I would like to know if this could be a recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), whether diabetes is the main cause of his symptoms, and what the appropriate treatment should be. His renal function test (RFT) is normal. I am attaching the USG and urine reports for further evaluation.

Question 2

Hi doctor my mother has to undergo cataract surgery. In her pre operative urine report her urine showed high pus cells and she received medication for it. After completing a one week course of medication she had her urine lab done again but her pus cells are still high along with high epithelial cells. Is this something very serious? I am attaching her two urine reports before and after her medication. The one marked with a pen is the first report and the one with no pen mark is the latest report.

Question 3

Hi. I have 12 to 14 pus cells and 45 to 50 RBC in my urine report. I also have stones in my right kidney measuring 14 mm, 7.5 mm, and 4 mm. What should I do?
