You don't mention the urinalysis result for white blood cells (or leukocyte esterase). If that result is high, a UTI is quite likely. If not, it's uncertain. UTIs without symptoms are quite common in older women-- regardless of your other urinalysis results, keep working with your doctor on this. If in doubt, she probably will request a urine culture to look for UTI bacteria. Good luck.

In the absence of symptoms the first thing to do is to have your doc repeat a UA and C&S test of a clean catch mid stream specimen. Secondly pl start drinking some water. Chances of the first report being inaccurate are high . Good luck

From a Urinalysis test, a high protein count, with high(ish) numbers of squamous cells and UA hyaline casts were found. My urine has cloudy and odor.
Dr. ordered a urinalysis for possible UTI. Test came back negative, but all the lab work (positive Nitrite, mucus, in addition to having all of the symptoms.) Is this a Bladder infection? I had a level of Urobilinogen 4.0, should I be concerned?
