Diabetic nephropathy: We need height in order to determine if weight is appropriate (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/BMI/bmicalc.htm). Your HbA1c, which indicates sugar control over last 3mo, is excellent. Protein in urine is worrisome. Ask for urine microalbumin:Creatinine ratio test to determine extent of damage if any (normal less than 30). Calculate eGFR from blood creatinine - should be 60+.
