Is refrigeration required to store urine?

I read urine was good for 24-48hrs. does it have to be refigerated during this time?

Yes it does need to be refrigerated. Without refrigeration, the specimen can last about 24 hours. If refrigerated, it can last from 5 days to 2 weeks (according to who you ask), and apparently, freezing can let the specimen last up to a year. Otherwise, bacterial growth can taint the specimen.

How far back will a oral drug test go back and how long before one does someone need to stop smoking pot?

I have answered questions like this before and you will no doubt not like my answer. I am not sure how far back an oral drug test will reach for pot so I would strongly suggest that you stop now. Today would be the earliest that you could quit. If this is in regards to your employment or future employment, then your employer is implying that they do not want to employ someone that uses illegal drugs. If you stop usage only to pass a test now, you will most probably start up again after the test and will get caught during a random testing later on. It is illegal and you need to stop.

Monocyte percent is 11.0?

The normal range for monocytes is two to eight percent. A high monocyte percent may indicate chronic inflammatory disease, parasitic infection, viral infection, leukemia, or tuberculosis.

What could cause high monocytes and neutrophils and WBC in your feline?

High monocyte counts are associated with hyperadrenocorticism, exogenous or endosteroids, and stress, inflammation, infection, immune-mediated tissue damage and malignancy. In fact any condition in which tissue damage is a feature.

High neutophils can indicate inflammation, infection, the presence of exogenous or endocorticosteroids, stress and some forms of myeloproliferative disorder (e.g. lymphosarcoma).

Hope this helps.

Will statflush help you pass an etg test?

ETG tests are so sensitive that mouthwash can set them off. It would be surprising if any of the so-called flushes worked, considering that they work poorly or not at all for testing in general. They're scams. The best way to pass a test is not to drink.

What does a 314 white blood cell count mean?

It would be helpful to know what the units of measure are. In hematology, the reference range for a WBC is 4,500-11,000/mm3 ; however, the count is usually reported out in SI units ( for example, 4.5 x 109 /L) or Conventional Units (4.5 x 103/uL). So, on a lab report, a range of 4.5-11.0 is the normal range using these units of measure.

If your report is using the standard units of measure, then a WBC of 314 is considered a "panic value". Extremely high. This could be due to several different processes, such as leukemias, severe infections (though this is still high even for a severe infection), and a handful of other conditions. Only your physician, taking all results and factors into consideration, can tell you where the problem lies.

What are out of pocket expenses for a blood draw?

Out of pocket (OOP) is the amount your insurance requires you to meet with your copay percentage. With most insurances you have a deductible, say $500. You have to pay this before the insurance will cover any of the medical cost. Once the deductible is met, depending on you insurance coverage, you will most likely have a copay. This is usually 80/20 meaning the insurance will pay for 80% of the cost and you are responsible for 20% until you meet your out of pocket which will vary in amount depending on you insurance coverage. I.E. Say your blood work cost $100 and you've already met your $500 deductible but you still have $300 to meet on your $1,000 out of pocket, you would be responsible for 20% of the $100 cost or to make it easier you would still pay $20. Hope this helps you better understand your insurance.
