Hello, I went to a rheumatologist and had bloodwork done because I keep getting iritis. My LEUK est-ua came back as a 3+ and then it said high. When I go to look up what that means, it s always associated with a uti. They keep mentioning it as finding this out through a urine sample. I didn t do a urine test, just blood work. Does it still mean that I would have a UTI? I hope you can understand what I am saying. Thank you. Diane.Sorry.......I didn t read anywhere that I had to pay for the answer. I will be seeing a specialist in a few days.
higher leucocytes value means there may be some infection in the body and to find where is it, we should go for detail history and based on that some specific investigation to prove it and prescribe optimal antibiotics.
