routine urine test report - #15275

Anya

I am really confused and a bit worried about my routine urine test report. Last week, I went in for my annual check-up, and the doctor said I should do a routine urine test—simple, right? But then I got the results back and there’s all these numbers and terms I didn’t understand! For starters, they found some protein in my urine, which I thought wasn’t supposed to be there? Like, how much is too much? And what does that mean for me? Also, my uric acid levels seem a bit high & I kinda thought I was doing everything right lately, drinking lots of water and all. There was also mention of leukocytes and that got me all freaked out—does this mean some kinda infection or something?? I tried to ask the nurse but she just said to follow up with my doctor. I just feel like I need some help decoding this routine urine test report. I read somewhere that things like diet or even stress can affect these results, but I really don’t know where to go from here. Should I be doing anything specific while I wait for my follow-up appointment? Just feeling lost. Any insights would be super helpful, I’m just really trying to understand what's going on since I really thought I was healthy. Thanks!
