Common Questions and Answers about Protein in urine diabetes

protein

Avatar f tn I have diabetes type 2.
Avatar n tn Hi, When was the first time that you were diagnosed with diabetes? Are you taking any medications for the diabetes? Proteinuria may need further assessment. Were casts present in the urine? Are there RBC's in the urine significant enough for a hematuria ( >5 /hpf)? You may need blood tests to determine serum creatinine and BUN levels. Your glomerular filtration rate has to be ascertained. Discuss this with your physician and keep us posted regarding his advice.
8408613 tn?1414894692 So I went to the hospital the other night and they told me there was 30 mg of protein in my urine. Is that a lot?? I had to do the 24 hour pee test and they are checking me for pre eclampsia.
5889951 tn?1380316047 s lymphoma, kidney disease, leukemia, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and sickle cell anemia are a few of the many conditions that can cause protein in urine, according to the Mayo Clinic. Also keep in mind that certain medications and dehydration can also cause the problem.
1305271 tn?1320984748 Protein in the urine in not a sign of pregnancy but can result in pregnant women who expereince a complication called preeclampsia (does not occur until 2nd-3rd trimester). Protein in your urine could indicate a problem with your kidneys. I do hope you have a follow-up with your doctor.
Avatar f tn Protein in urine discovered on a microalbumin test may often be the earliest sign of diabetic kidney damage. Have you seen a Nephralogist to rule kidney issues or renal pathway infection? Try posting on the Kidney Disease & Disorders & Nutrition forums. Not much more I can help you with since your concern doesn't appear to be about diabetes. Good luck.
9801256 tn?1412729114 Today i had the midwife and she said i had protein in my urine she's sending me to my gp tomorrow for further tests im 25 weeks pregnant what does it mean when you have protein in you're urine? I read that it could be early stages of pre clampsina or diabetes?
Avatar f tn Thanks Darci3 and Zim90 but r they checking for glucose too meaning diabetes?
Avatar n tn m ok so I had her redo the test because everything I have ever read indicated that foamy urine is usually protien. It can back in the low ranges of normal for even a healthy person once again. All was good and fine thereafter until I noticed that my new pack of ketoacidosis strips that I always get but never use had a proteinuria check on them. The test came back on the lighter side of trace, but with the foam getting worse in my urine. I am once again worried.
Avatar f tn Today I went to the doctor because I have been itching like crazy, but my doctor is straight up with me and he told me that I have protein and glucose in my urine. I have had two uti’s in the past 2 months, I have been itching like crazy, I have been very tired, and my blood pressure is higher for a person of my size. I am 16, 5’7 and I weigh 130 lbs.
Avatar n tn Ketones and proteins in the urine can result from many factors, like excessive exercise, dehydration, high protein diet, kidney problems, and diabetes. Diabetes in the initial stages does not produce glucose in urine. However neither will it bring about ketones and proteins in the urine at an early stage. These are generally the signs of uncontrolled diabetes. You need to check the blood sugar fasting (8-12 hours) and two hours after a proper meal.
Avatar n tn high specific gravity means high specific gravity, protein in the urine is a different measurement that is easily checked. Traces of protein are of no concern and often mean many things other than kidney disease.
Avatar n tn Some protein is normal in the urine. A 24 hour estimation of protein loss in urine would be optimal to estimate the level of proteinuria. Conditions which can cause proteinuria are nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis, dehydration, collagen vascular diseases, strenuous exercises, diabetes mellitus, infections, multiple myeloma etc. I would suggest that you repeat the urine analysis again and take the opinion of your urologist to rule out the conditions mentioned above.
Avatar m tn Hello all, went and had a physical the other day, and showed trace amounts of blood, protein and ketones in urine. The doctor told me not to be concerned because this was only trace amounts. However, I was worried so went and seen my PCP, and she did urine and blood work. It showed that I did have blood in my urine(microscopic) and blood showed higher BUN, and creatine. I cant remember if she said anything about my GFR, because it was a blur.
Avatar f tn no thisw will not cause foamy urine, I have stage 3 alos and have had foamy urine for some time, I call it beer head urine!!! it is a sign of kidney disease.
Avatar f tn I had a really bad kidney infection in January so Im on an antibiotic but I noticed my right kidney has been hurting so I went to the dr today and I had blood in my urine. They said its probably just a kidney stone. Then they did an ultrasound to check on the baby well my placenta has calcium spots on it, which she said is the placenta preparing for labor. Im only 33 weeks, she paused for a long time before saying if it was normal. There was a lot of white spots.

1315350 tn?1311602951 A couple of weeks ago, I had lab work done which included a urine sample, which showed there was a trace of blood and 30 mg/dl of protein in my urine. Should I be concerned? Thanks in advance for any insight!
Avatar f tn My daughters test revealed a trace of protein in her urine. We're also looking for any signs of an autoimmune disease. What can cause protein in the urine and what does a "trace" signify?
Avatar f tn Protein in urine could be an indicator of pre eclampsia.
Avatar f tn At my last appointment my doctor asked what I had eaten because I had sugar in my urine. I had actually JUST eaten and had pop to drink. I dont normally ever do caffeine but the place I ate had Barqs instead of mugs rootbeer. Not that caffeine is a factor, but I mentioned it to her. And I haven't had an appointment where I have eaten before usually always eat after I leave visit. Anyway she said no more rootbeer until after baby.
