glucose

188761 tn?1584567620 I have already consulted my primary care about this today about 3 hours back and he has recommended a urine sugar test as the glucose level in her blood is not very high but pretty much in control. However, slightly above the diabetes benchmark. But, the glucose level in her urine is high and it shows some thing like "++++" on her reports. I am very concerned if it has some thing to do with the end stage renal disease / Kidney failure. My question to you is - 1.
Avatar m tn Then test is essential normal except for the presence of increased phosphate compound which may be indicative of renal disease, hormonal/ endocrine causes etc. and may require further evaluation. You may like to discuss the results with your treating doctor. Hope this is helpful. Take care!
Avatar n tn As other causes such as stress ,exercises and a recent meal intake may cause increase levels of glucose in the urine. This may be true in isolated cases. An initial work up may be necessary just to check blood glucose levels. Your BUN and Creatinine levels may also be checked to get a baseline evaluation of renal function.
Avatar f tn People with normal kidneys and normal glucose metabolism do not have glucose in their urine (they may have 1+ immediately after a high carb meal). Albumin +1 Urine protein results always must be interpreted in conjunction with specific gravity. A small amount of protein normally is present in urine and may be detected in concentrated urine. Many false positive protein tests occur, especially with alkaline urine. The protein test detects mainly albumin.
Avatar f tn I had a complete kidney bladder work-up just 6 months ago cuz blood was found in my urine (blood has been found in my urine once in a while for over 25 years). Had been a few years since my last COMPLETE work up so did it again. Ultra sound of Kidneys, dye, or whatever they inject, watched and x-rayed as it went through kidneys and bladder plus actual physical exam of my bladder with a sample sent off to be examined.---Absolute nothing could be found AGAIN!
Avatar n tn The product of the Wilson disease gene is expressed in renal tissue, but whether the renal symptoms are primary or secondary to release of copper from the liver is unknown. Renal complications tend to be functional changes unrelated to identifiable histologic findings. Rarely, patients with Wilson disease develop renal stones and associated symptoms. Renal stones are precipitated by hypercalciuria (the condition of elevated calcium in the urine.
1685471 tn?1305360419 Hello, The first possibility for a frequent urge of urination is urinary tract infection. Get your urine examination done and drink plenty of fluids.
Avatar f tn This is totally out of character for her as she is a very clean dog, always has been. I am worried now that she has renal problems. As the urine is very clear and odourless I don't think there is a urinary infection. I know that she may just be becoming incontinent (she was spayed, approx at 2 years old). Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem with their dog and any suggestions. I will have to take her back to the vets, but just after some thoughts from yourselves.
Avatar n tn What is Grade 1 renal medical disease? Is there a cure through medicines and dieting?
Avatar n tn I have blood in urine (2+) for over one year. My abdominal ultrasound is normal: no evidence for renal calculi or urinary obstruction. Do I have to go for further test?
Avatar f tn Since renal function is also influenced by thyroid disease, changes in renal elimination of drugs which are excreted in the urine mainly as unchanged drugs have to be considered as another reason for altered drugs disposition in thyroid disease." - Drug Metabolism In Thyroid Disease - Clin Pharmacokinet. 1976;1(5):339-50.
Avatar n tn My real question though is what would cause glucose in my urine? It never showed up on the countless urine tests I had in the past. I've read that it could show 1+ after a high carb meal, but as I said I hadn't eaten in at least 14 hours, and my diet is fairly balanced and healthy, not extremely high in carbs or sugar. None of my doctors have ever suspected diabetes, but about a year and a half ago a random glucose test was normal (85).
Avatar m tn Had you fasted 8-10 hrs prior to the test? "Anyway I checked my BGluose with meter yesturday, it was after eating....my reading was 7.4" Testing after eating is called postprandial. Postprandial test times is 2-3 hrs after a meal. Before this time does not provide a good insight as your blood sugar is still on the rise. Are you in the UK? If yes, the 7.4 mmol/l indicates 133.20 mg/dl, an acceptable postprandial levels IF you are diabetic. If not, it is high. Normal is between 3.
987242 tn?1335490770 gross hematuria (blood that you can see in the urine), and microscopic hematuria (blood that is only seen when the urine is examined under a microscope). Both types can have serious causes. Diagnostic tests that may be performed include Urinalysis, Urine culture, X-rays of the kidneys, Cystoscopy, IVP, Abdominal ultrasound and CT scan of the abdomen. My sincere advice would be to consult a urologist. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
Avatar f tn Microscopic hematuria can be due to urinary tract (bladder) infection, swelling in the filtering system of the kidneys ,stone in bladder or in a kidney, blood disease, like sickle cell anemia, certain medicines and tumors in the urinary tract. I suggest you to take opinion of your doctor who would do a clinical examination and advice for needful tests. I hope it helps.
Avatar n tn My Dr also told me he has no concerns of me being diabetic since no glucose showed up in my urine samples. Both the dip stick as well as the lab samples. Like I said, i was at the Dr around 1:30pm, and I hadnt eatin since dinner the night before. He mentioned that could have caused the ketones on the dipstick test. Could this, as well as the stress I was under, cause the trace amounts of protein?
Avatar f tn While I was in the room with the medical assistant, she told me the doctor want her to check my blood because I have high glucose levels in my urine. She said I could be pre- diabetic and etc. So when the doctor came in she said your blood is good. No diabetes, I asked her was it in my urine and she said you don't have diabetes. My Mom has type 1. And I'm scared. I have these symptoms and can't make sense of this?
Avatar f tn I finished all of the antibiotics but I am still experiencing flank pain (upper abdominal, lower pelvic area, and upper and lower back). I also still have White Blood Cells in my urine. Even though I took all of these meds, can it be that I still have a UTI , kidney infection or kidney disease? I am in the process of getting a renal and pelvic sonogram but it is a long time from now because of the holidays. Please help! Pain is unbearable.
963889 tn?1359677334 I have stage 3 chronic kidney disease, with rapid decline in egfr. I am seeing a neph on thursday but am anxious and looking for answers hopefully before then. I just got my renal ultrasound results and says that I have "bliateral renal cortical thinning" right kidney 9.1cm and left 10.7, cortical thinning worse on right, focal areas of scarring on right mid pole. I understand the egfr bit but am lost with all this. What does it mean??????
Avatar m tn Hello, Blood in urine means hematuria. Most often it is related to urinary tract problems like kidney stones, inflammation of urinary tract, prostate enlargement, renal vein thrombosis, certain kidney tumors and polycystic kidney disease, blood coagulation disorders and anticoagulants. With cystoscopy your urologist will rule out any growth or obstruction in urinary tract which can be due to benign growth, prostate enlargement and any malignancy as well. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
440941 tn?1243648084 The face that the number of red blood cells went from 25-30 and now at 10-12 is kind of reassuring plus there is no visible blood in my urine and no proteinuria noted. plus at my age renal tumors are highly unlikely. please tell me what other tests you suggest i ask my doctor to take. I'm scheduled for a repeat urinalysis on the 6th June.
Avatar f tn t had me follow up on the fatty liver disease. On Monday of this week I was in the ER. I had tightness in my chest, my blood pressure was elevated at 150/96, pulse of 106 (this is very high for me - usually my blood pressure is 115/60, pulse between 65-70). My blood pressure while I was in the ER would go from high to low and back to high along with my pulse as well. I wasn't anxious or anything like that that could have caused my blood pressure to go high.
Avatar n tn • The third reason for low specific gravity is renal failure, which results in a fixed specific gravity between 1.007 and 1.010. In renal failure, the remaining functional nephrons undergo compensatory structural and hypertrophic changes. These compensatory changes result in urine that is almost isotonic with plasma. Therefore, a patient experiencing renal failure will present with specimens measuring the same, or fixed, specific gravity regardless of water intake.
Avatar m tn He was able to view my CT scan fromt the hospital and indicated that I had a 2mm kidney stone in my left kidney and also a renal calcification in the meaty part of the kidney. He stated this was not a kidney stone and wanted more tests to rule out cancer. He indicated it was more like a cyst. I also got the results of my urine test and found out I have a bladder infection today. Today I had a CT scan with and without the contrast dye. My question is...what is a renal calcification???
