Subject: I reslistened again, new occult anemia?

Patient had therapeutic thoracentesis and 1 liter fuid drained.  Could the doc want the lab tests to evaluate for new occult anemia I wonder?  I will flag this one and just go with this.  I could not find anything else.  Thanks for bearing with me, Im in deep with this pulmonology doc and learning to swim!

There is a link at the end of this.

Urine is generally sterile, but sometimes bacteria or, more rarely, yeast can move from the skin outside the urethra and migrate back up the urinary tract to cause a urinary tract infection (UTI).
