UTI tests

so I took a UTI test about 3 weeks ago thinking I had a UTI, but it came positive for leukocytes but not UTI. So I go to the dr and they said I had a UTI well the medication wasn’t doing anything bc everytime I took a test the leukocytes were still dark purple. Like dark. Within seconds. So I called and told them the medication wasn’t working. So they did a structure test on my urine and told me I had a PH bacteria overgrowth, so they switched the medication, and now when I take the test (I still have 2 days left on the new medication) it shows up light pink, almost purple, if you’re familiar with at home UTI test you’ll know what I’m talking about, and I was wondering if that meant it was getting better or not? My main concern is something more serious is going on and it’s not being caught and being overlooked. It also took the full 2 minutes before you’re supposed to read the test to show up, and by the 2 minutes it was light pink. And then the longer it sat the darker it got, but you’re only supposed to wait 2 minutes to read the results. So what do y’all think? I’m still stressing about this. I’ve had blood work done also in the last week.
