I've been to the doctors this morning, and said I think I might have diabetes and could I have a blood test to check it. He said I had 2 blood tests taken in either Feb or March and my glucose leve was fine on one it was 4.5 and on the other it was 4.9 so he is happy with them :-S

I am glad your doc is optimistic. Keep me updated on whatever happens next. I will be calling my doc in a few hours. He is not open yet. I am nervous. I will let you know how it goes.

Yeah let me know. I have just made an appointment with urology and have got an appointment for wednesay 7th May for some scans and cystoscopy which im very nervous about! They arent putting me to sleep for the cystoscopy which I thought they would and my doctor told me they would. Just have to wait till then now...

I am sorry that you have to have the cystoscopy. I am scared that I will have to have one also. I was hoping that I could repeat the urinalysis to check for more blood before it comes to that. Did you repeat the urinalysis? I am still waiting for my Doc to come in. He will be in the office in about 20 more mins. I hope he will see me today. I don't think you ever said if you were male or female or your age group. I am a 29 year old female. I don't know what that does for my risk assessment as far as the blood in the urine goes or if that effects the next test steps that will be taken. I heard they give local anasthetic for the cystoscopy. Good luck. Keep me posted.
Yes we sent a few tests which all came back positive for blood although you cant see the blood you can tell its there as my urine is very cloudy! Ask for a strip test which shows straight away if blood is present thats what I did in the doctors surgery. I'm 24 year old female coming up 25 in June. Well mine started out as an infection which has now gone but the bood is still there and I have still got frequent urination. I could of waited 5 weeks to get the cystoscopy but im travelling a little further to get it done earlier. I have heard a lot of people on here have had this procedure done and still dont know what is wrong.

I just got home from the doc visit and lunch with my husband. The doc was not there but the nurse called him and then she had me pee in a cup once again so they can do a culture. I need to go back later in the week to see the doc and for yet another urinalysis. My urine is kind of hazy. You can see through it usually but in the light it looks like there is tiny particles suspended in it. I noticed this when peeing in cup for a pregnancy test, which came out negative.
I did have a kidney infection about 6 months ago. The infection was gone when re-tested. The nurse at my doc's office said that there may be some type of reaccurring infection. I asked her about the relatively few wbc and the elevated rbc and she said that there does not have to be wbc on the urinalysis to have an infection. She also said I may need to see a urologist. I am freaked out. I am glad that I have been able to talk with you though. It has helped. I have work tomorrow and I am nervous about it because I tend to just sit there and worry. I have an office job so there is not alot to distract me.
