Urine protein: 31 F: Urinary protein/24hrs ranges from 130-140mg across several tests. Confused because ref. range says anything &lt;150 ok, but info online says almost ANY amount of protein in urine is abnormal. Which is correct? Is my level suggestive of a kidney problem ANS: Why are they testing urine protein many times? Must suspect some renal disease. I would ask the Drs. ordering the test they know you best.
