A member asked:
What would normally happen, if a urine dipstick test shows ''traces'' of protein? will my doctor then recommend a repeated test? or will he ignore it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Overall picture: Depends on what he was testing the urine for and what illness you have. He may want you to provide a morning urine.
