Urinalysis Showed RBC After Having Had Dengue. Do I Need To Get CT Stonogram?

Hi! For several years now I have had 3-4 RBC reading in my urinalysis. Lately, this went up to 7-8 after a bout with dengue where my water intake reduced. Do I need the CT Stonogram now as suggested by my Doctor or should I go on with my water therapy for a while and have another urinalysis later. My WBC in my latest test also ranged from 4-5.

Hi
Thanks for your query.
If you are recovering from dengue, then I would suggest that you wait for a few days and then repeat the urinalysis.
If the repeat test shows persistent RBCs and WBCs we could plan the further course of action.
Hope this helps
Good luck.
