Nephrologist,  's  Response
Hi troubled one. You seem to be in pain as you typed this question. It took some time for me to get to grips with your question/ written diarrhoea! It will help if you state your age/ sex/ past problems etc. I hope a kidney infection ahs been ruled out (UTI/ Pyelonephritis). I would not worry too much about an isolated increase in RBC count. Its probably just because you may be dry due to all the vomiting/ diarrhoea, etc. Make sure you are well hydrated. I hope you dont take any recreational drugs some of which can cause the symptoms that you are complaining. See a gastroenterologist who can make an appropraite assessment. Good luck
