I love the word dipstick!
It reminds me of Only Fools And Horses.
And a few posters on here!
hahahahaha Ruthio, you are so funny sometimes, I always have a good laugh at how you can make something so much fun......

As far as the dipstick goes, I am going to have to do this next week. I have never done it before. I think the doctor told me it would find out how much glucose is in my blood.

Would that be the same as you Sharon?

Re: Urine Dipstick test

I have had a UTI all year and been on antibiotics most of the year. I've stopped worrying about it. I'm still on the right side of the grass.

Hi Blue...urine on the dipstick is used to measures protein in the urine...as well.

I am sure you are right Filly, but when I was at my specialist office last week, he just mentioned for me to get my glucose level.......I think he is checking to see if I should be on meds again for diabetes......at least that is what I thought at the time, as I think glucose is sugar.....isn't it?

Talk to you later Filly, take care....eh? x Blue

Yes Blue, you are right...both protein and glucose is checked with the dipstick and maybe other things as well, I don't know.

I just had Gracie out...and boy am I ever having trouble moving around today. Yes honey we'll talk later...

Re: Urine Dipstick test

Blood in the urine can be symptomatic of many illnesses; I hope things work out for you.
