Thanks for your feedback.What about Albumin TRACE where it was supposed to be NIL does it signifies any kidney problem ?.
Also as you mentioned Epithelial cells are common during pregnancy but the results 3-4 times higher than normal range.
Whee we can rule out to make sure that there are no urinary tract infection?.Whether there is any specfic test to rule out ?
