Question 3

can blood in the urine cause a false positive for protein in the urine?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Because the hemoglobin in red blood cells is a protein, if there is blood in the urine it can test positive for protein. You would need to have your urine retested when there is no blood in it to make sure about the protein.

Question 4

what are the causes of blood and protein in urine?

Accepted Answer

Kidney disease?: Blood in the urine could be from any part of the urinary system- kidney, ureters, bladder or urethra. But a combination of blood and protein in the urine should make one suspect kidney disease. Have your doctor check your kidney function and quantify how much protein you are losing in the urine.

Question 5

can an increase in igg + iga proteins in the blood (serum) cause an overflow and therefore protein in the urine?

Accepted Answer

If kidney diseased..: Kidneys can leak protein if the kidneys are diseased. Proteinuria is a very sensitive predictor of development of progressive renal insufficiency, particularly when looking at high molecular weight proteins such as immunoglobulin g (igg), as predictors of chronic kidney disease progression. In some cases, mild proteinuria can occur without kidney disease.

Question 6

24hr urine (5000ml) creatinine, protein, and albumin results are high - about double the max normal, but blood is normal. what would cause this?

Accepted Answer

Proteinuria: With certain kidney pathology there can be heavy amounts of protein lost in the urine due to glomerular pathology but the rest of the kidney function can be good enough so that blood tests for kidney function are still normal. A nephrologist can better explain your status after evaluating you and all your pertinent test results.

Question 7

i have red blood cells, blood and protein in my urine , pain under ribs what causes this please, ?

Accepted Answer

Kidney stones: Most likely kidney stones. Need to have ultrasound of kidney and bladder.

Question 8

protein and blood in urine.  what is the cause?   for well over  a year.

Accepted Answer

Kidney problem: There are many type of kidney disease that can give you positive blood and increased protein in the urine- from infection, inflammation, autoimmune problems, injury to kidney due to different factors, medication related, other medical condition  etc. Since that has been going on for over a year- do not delay further- you should see a kidney doctor and have further evaluation.

Question 9

what is the most likely cause of protein and ketones in urine, egfr of 78%, negative cultures and normal blood results.

Accepted Answer

How much?: Miss a meal and you'll have +1 ketones in your urine. Many people have trace proteinuria and this is okay. You may also have orthostatic proteinuria caused by standing up -- some people are like this -- and this is easily ruled in or out by checking your first-voided urine in the morning. Forget "most likely"; you do need to have the cause found. Best wishes.

Question 10

what could cause a female, 60 years, to have moderate, sharp lower pelvic pain?  urine is clear, no blood, protein, sugar in it, ph 6.5.

Accepted Answer

Pelvic pain: There are lots of reasons for acute pelvic pain in a woman in the menopause.  Since it is not a urinary tract infection, you need to be worked up for ovarian cyst, irritable bowel, kidney stone and many other things.
