Had blood work and urinalysis come back normal for a research study. Two weeks or less later, went for checkup. Didn't stay for results of urinalysis, dr. called back left message. then mailed results of urine report to me. Had some postitve results in like three categories, one of lyctes, and one of the rubins or bumin cant remember. . No illicit drugs involved at all. Had stayed up all night playing blackjack at casino went through several packs of cigs, a few beers, no food. Then no sleep to go on top of that. I do take lovastatin for mildly high cholesterol. I have had three blood drawings since and everything was in the normal ranges. Any suggestions out there as to what may cause these elevations or is it just the combo of the bad things I did to my body that day? Any help would be appreciated. I have had no health issues at all. Just very curious as to the results being what they were.

No, Ker, the two a "dipstick" urine attempt and an entire laboratory urinalysis contain extremely precise finding out for microhematuria (invisible blood interior the urine). The preliminary attempt might have been contaminated if no longer performed with suitable technique (wiping your urethral commencing with a cleansing swab, preserving the vulva aside to avert epidermis touch and gathering purely a mid-pass pattern). If the whole urinalysis became right gathered then relax certain: you haven't any longer have been given any blood or protein on your urine. desire that helps. Brrrr, MD

Maybe it had to do with sugar intake, and caffeine.
