Proteinuria: With certain kidney pathology there can be heavy amounts of protein lost in the urine due to glomerular pathology but the rest of the kidney function can be good enough so that blood tests for kidney function are still normal. A nephrologist can better explain your status after evaluating you and all your pertinent test results.

I have elevated blood creatinine (1.34 mg/dL) and all other tests lie in normal range (blood albumin&protein, spot urine ACR, kidney USG, BUN, Urea, U. Acid). I used to lift heavy weights but quit. I always had elevated creatinine. Something to worry?
