A member asked:
What does it mean when they find high protein in you're urine ? is it serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be but...: Needs more studies whether excessive protein excretion in urine is to be concerned. Underlying conditions such as diabetes mellitus or systemic lupus certainly raise concern. There is also a benign condition known as orthostatic proteinuria.
