A member asked:

I have transient proteinuria. my doctor hasn't told me a thing about it. she barely batted an eye. please, someone explain whats happening to me?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A non-problem: If you have "trace" proteinuria showing on urinalysis, it means nothing though we report it. If you were bad-sick and had +1 proteinuria and it went away, it's nothing to worry about. If you have proteinuria after standing for a while but it's not in your first-voided morning specimen, it's orthostatic proteinuria and a non-problem. Other proteinuria is problematic.
