Hi doctor,
I have undergone bladder surgery for poor flow. Now, I have done some blood test. I am in confusion. I have got rheumatic fever before 20 years. I am taking many antibiotics for the past two months. Please suggest.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the attachment (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Your ASO (antistreptolysin O) titer is raised suggesting antibodies against streptococcal metabolites. Your ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and neutrophil counts are mildly elevated suggesting a mild inflammation in the body. It can be due to urinary tract infection. Kindly continue the medicines recommended by your physician for UTI and consult your urologist for a deeper insight as it may be related to your recent bladder operation.
