A member asked:

I had 1+ protein in urine. i've noticed bubble clusters in my urine that are not dissipating. my doctor not worried but i asked to repeat test. scared?

Stop worrying: Bubbles that are easily visible aren't even protein, they are mucus. Ask your physician about whether you can test the first-voided morning specimen to see if your proteinuria is the harmless kind caused by standing up.
