I'm 5 weeks pregnant and my recent urine test showed pus cells of 20-25. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it lead to any serious issues?

Widal Test Report Interpretation

Positive Result:

The Widal test detects antibodies against Salmonella Typhi and Paratyphi. Your report shows:

  1. Salmonella Typhi O (1:160): Indicates a significant level of antibodies against Typhi O antigen.
  2. Salmonella Typhi H (1:40): Shows a moderate level of antibodies against Typhi H antigen.

Impression: Positive (+ve)

This suggests that you have been exposed to Salmonella Typhi, which could indicate a current or past Typhoid infection.

Dietary Recommendations:

During Typhoid infection, it's essential to focus on nutrient-rich foods that are easy to digest:

  1. Fluids: Drink plenty of water, clear soups, and electrolyte-rich beverages like coconut water.
  2. Bananas: Easy to digest and a good source of potassium.
  3. Rice: Plain white rice is easy on the stomach.
  4. Applesauce: A low-fiber, easily digestible fruit.
  5. Lean proteins: Opt for lean proteins like chicken, fish, or tofu.
  6. Avoid spicy and fatty foods: These can exacerbate digestive issues.

A hemoglobin level of 9.1 might be too low for a planned fibroid surgery next week. It's generally considered safe to have a hemoglobin level of at least 10 g/dL before surgery to minimize complications related to blood loss, according to some medical sources. Raising hemoglobin levels quickly can be done by incorporating iron-rich foods into your diet, potentially taking iron supplements (with doctor's approval), and ensuring adequate vitamin B12 and folate intake, according to some healthcare websites.
