Sorry Sir, I forgot to mention that I was getting a burning sensation and had fever 100 2 days ago. I started taking nitrofurantoin twice daily which I was taking only one dose.

I am also taking cran pac d twice daily and alfoo once a day.

I ate spicy food on the day when i started facing burning sensation while passing urine. My doctor suggested there is no precautions when it comes to eat food hence i took spicy food. Please advise, is there any food should I avoid?

I talked to my doctor and he suggested to continue with the medicines what he has suggested and discuss with him after the urine culture report.

What I am more worried is in my urine routine report, pus cells were huge around 150-200 and I also had 3500 white blood cells which never came in my any of the earlier report. Since last 2 days, I am drinking lot of water and didnt have fever and burning sensation but I would like to have your advise on the results I have mentioned here on pus and white blood cells since the numbers are huge. thanks for your help and time.
