A member asked:
My urinalysis was negative except for protein (+1) and presence of amorphous sediment. what does this mean? do i have a uti? thank you.

Probably no UTI: The main urinalysis abnormality in UTI is increased white blood cells; or on a dipstick test, positive leukocyte esterase and nitrites. Amorphous sediment is entirely normal. 1+ protein usually also doesn't mean anything. So no evidence at all of UTI. Beyond that, discuss with your doctor.
