happens again...
im having no fever.....
i do however sometimes feel a sharp pain
in my groin area about my testicles
i am a young nurse and i think this
contributes to my thinking always worrying

I can’t answer your question until all
the medical investigations of blood &
urine analyses are completed. According to
the description and projection of the pain
(in the groin area and testicle), you
might be experiencing a kidney stone
traveling through the ureter down to the
bladder. Diagnostic procedures such as an
abdominal ultrasound are necessary to see
if the stones are present. I am also not
sure about what a “thin white layer in
the urine” indicates. It might be
evidence a urinary tract infection but
laboratory urinary analyses will confirm
that first. You can go to an internist for
examinations.
