Proteinuria: You cannot predict the amount of protein based on a 2+ reading on a dip stick. Proteinuria (p) is not constant. If you have 1 gram of p/day, that does not mean you have 250 mg of protein in your urine every 6 hours. You need to have a 24 hour urine collection for protein to see what amount of protein is in your urine on that day. See a nephrologist, and get one ordered to answer your question.
