A member asked:
Can strept throat cause globulin and protein levels to be elevated or is this from not drinking water for 2 days the cause of dehydration?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both: Strep throat if left unattended can cause various systemic problems: damage to kidney, glomerulonephritis, and rheumatic heart valve problems. This is caused by immunoglobulins. So that is why your protens are elevated. Dehydration can increase too.
