I had a urinalysis done and it came out with 2+ protein and 3+ blood in my urine. A microscopic examination of the urine showed 11-30 red blood cells in my urine and mucus threads. What does this mean?

In females, it is commonly caused by a bladder infection, and a little less commonly due to a kidney infection. It can also be caused by vigorous physical activity and certain medications. There's good info at this site:

I'm 36 weeks 3 days and have protein in my urine, high blood pressure, and my face/hands/feet have gotten puffy and swollen. It's called toxemia and also known as pre-ecalmpsia. Your doctor should be seeing you at least twice a week to monitor and you should be getting bloodwork done regularly so they can make sure your liver is functioning properly. If the toxemia gets worse it can lead to severe problems and result in seizures or end up in a coma. If you're getting headaches regularly that is a sign that it's getting worse, and you need to tell your doctor right away. Otherwise, just rest and put your feet up lots, and drink lots of water. Good luck!
