A member asked:

Had a urinalysis. all things negative, except leukocytes were +1 and it said "few"bacteria. for rbc, said none seen. for wbc, said was in range 0-5. my question is why didn't it say none seen. since range was 0-5, i could have had 0. thoughts?

The only positive finding in your urinalysis was 1+ leukocyte (actually leukocyte esterase). If this urine test was performed because of urinary symptoms such as dysuria (painful voiding) or frequency, urine culture would be next step to take to rule in or out UTI.
