Tara M asked:


My friend has urine test strips she has to use during pregnancy. So I used one just for kicks. Well it showed I had large amount of leukocytes and small amount of blood in my urine. I feel quite well and have no symptoms of infection or anything.

So should I see a doctor about this or just hope it clears up on its own?

This car, the same one on my profile here, is in the shop and being stripped down as we speak. It’s getting slammed, shaved, frenched and coker wide whites thrown on. Here’s the deal, I haven’t decided on what color to go with yet but have it down to two custom color choices:

Deep blood red (similar to a “Black Cherry” paint job). A black base coat is laid on and then layers of candy brite red are painted on so in the end, it’s deep and dark with highlights of red in the light.

Deep custom blue with white interior. Most likely a midnight blue with blue pearl.

Your opinion counts, she’s getting her body work done now and soon, my profile will be updated with a photo of my car with the new color.

Yes, willing to take custom color answers as well. If you have another color in mind, voice it.

i have a 14 week old golden lab puppy. hes great he loves to play and be energetic. i had noticed he had blood in his diharia(cant spell too early in the morning). my brother thinks its because he LOvES to eat mud or gnaw at sharp sticks and twigs. he also loves to nibble on rocks. im in the process of breaking the habit. he has a treat thats called Beggin Strips. they are also a red color. it may be because of that too? my pup pooped like drips the first time, then next day some regular poop (i think he went kinda far out i know i should be keeping a eye on it but i never thaught that it would get this seriouse =/) when my dog dripped blood the blood looked fresh and it was not dark or like black or anything like that it looked like fresh red blood. im only 14 so i dont have a car or money for the vets. i live in tuxedo n.y and i dont think there are any shelters that would like to check him for free. also the second time he pooped it was like pasty dihriah and not completly watery. at the end of his poop the diahria started fading to a redder color. the third time wich was today was when he took a poop and it was watery and then stop dripps came out. my dog has been vaccinated from parvo and i really hope its not eriouse
he poops blood sometimes but usually its fine.

P.S when i got him i saw him poop and it was fine. could it be from the change of diet? im giving him puppy chow but am soon planing to switch to BilJak. also my puppy loves to horse around and jump and wrestle and things like that.

please help me i just got this dog a week or 2 ago and i dont want to loose him. please if u advise me to go to a vet can u find one that can do it for free like a veternarian at a shelter.like i said i live in Tuxedo N.Y 10987.

Thanks Alot\

hi asked:


i checked my blood sugar the other day and it was 141 two hours after eating. i used my grandma’s blood sugar thing. (IDK what there called)
i realized the strips were expired. Also is it true that if you pee right before taking your blood sugar you will get false low results. i took it agian in the morning right after i peed it felt like my bladder was going to explode. it said my blood sugar was 85. apparently my cousin turned something on it. IDK i’m confused are the results accurate or what. I don’t know much about diabetes.

The large lump just occurred. It is not very painful, but seems to hurt now that I am paying so much attention to it. (psychological, I know)

I had vein sclerotherapy (I think it was called) several weeks ago. Not stripping surgery. I am familiar with the little blood clots along where the vein use to be, but this is not discolored, doesn’t seem to be connected to a vein, and is large.

Any ideas?

I just ordered this through the vet.

He suggested using it to tell how the cat is doing
with his insulin shots.

I am just curious how often people check their cats
with this.

My cat is pretty tolerant but I don’t think he would like
getting his ear pricked too much.

Also, is it hard to get the drop of blood onto
the side edge of the paper strip?

Thanks!
Thanks, Ken, so much.

That video is really helpful.

My cat was first diagnosed in 2003
and gets shots twice a day. He is a great cat. Thanks for helping us with the good information.

I’ve had mine stripped this morning and the Doc told me I would expirence bleeding/spotting. Well me and the hubby did it and no signs of blood anywhere. I’m just curious if this is a precursor to it not working.

we have Reagent strips for Urinalysis at home (there for testing my nephew) and i decided to test my urine this morning and on the part where it shows if you have blood in your urine it is showing that theres a level of 80 ++ haemolyzed…this cant be normal,right?

Ill book an appointment for the doctor to check it out in the morning, but im just wondering if anyone know why this might be? im nearly 24 weeks pregnant.. Everything else was normal!

k-may asked:


i have used a TruTrack meter for the last 4 years and have been happy with it. I just received a OneTouch UltraMini meter in the mail and compared the two by testing my blood with both. I am shocked with the readings. There was a 15 point difference. That is not acceptable since I am an uncontrollable brittle diabetic and need to have an accurate reading. So any suggestions on how i can determine which one is right. Consumer reports says that the OneTouch is the most accurate in their report we just got this weekend. Can anyone help me determine on which one I should continue to use. I like the compact features of the OneTouch but should I give up my old one for that reason. I have medicare so my strips are paid for. Please help me on this one. Thank you.
