A member asked:
Bubbly/foamy urine. some doctors say it's normal , some say your kidneys are failing . which is it ?!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urine protein: You should have a simple urinalysis done to see if there is protein in the urine. In addition, if you are diabetic you should have a test done for microscopic amounts of albumin in the urine.
