A member asked:
Did kidney stone lead to protein and rbc in urine? and also weight loss too? if yes, in what stage weight loss occurs? and when protein in urine occur
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney stones: Kidney stones can definitely cause both microscopic blood or grossly noticeable blood in the urine, but not necessarily proteinuria. They don't cause weight loss per se,though. Protein in urine is usually a sign of kidney disease from inflammation, high blood pressure,diabetic nephropathy, or tumor. Hematuria and/or proteinuria require an evaluation by your physician, nephrologist or urologist
