they could check if it has blood in it, whether you`re passing too much sugar (or perhaps not enough)..... as for the `epid...` part, this could just mean the skin (as in epidermis) but I wouldn`t get yourself worried as you didn`t say you`d found any lumps or anything. it`s amazing what can happen if you sit down awkwardly! :/

Or they could test if you are pregnant which in your case I`m certain you`re not LOL ;)
A urinalysis is most often ordered if a urinary tract infection is suspected, although there are other reasons why such a test could be useful. Like the complete blood count, a urinalysis can check on several different things:
[*]The number and kind of cells from the lining of the kidneys and bladder that have appeared in the urine [*]The number and variety of both red (RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs) The presence of bacteria or other organisms [*]A variety of chemicals that the kidneys filter (when healthy or sick), such as glucose [*]The pH, measuring how acidic or basic the urine is [*]The concentration of the urine
