A member asked:

Did a urine sample for doctor proteine was found traces of glucose an ketones the doctor has requested another sample do i need to worry?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Glucose in urine: While small amounts of protein and ketones may appear in urine of healthy people, glucose in the urine is not normal and may reflect a problem in the kidneys or the presence of diabetes. If the amount was "trace" it may be falsely positive, but deserves rechecking the urine and a blood sugar test.
