What cancers cause protein in urine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Kidney cancer can cause protein in the urine (proteinuria) but blood in the urine (gross or microscopic hematuria) is more pronounced. Multiple myeloma causes a different type of proteinuria. Membranous glomerulonephritis with heavy proteinuria may occur in some patients with malignant disease; solid or blood cancer such as lung cancer or leukemia, can present first with this kidney disease.

My total protein had been increasing, so my dr had me test for multiple myeloma. Protein had come down to normal,no m-spike observed, everything normal except a slightly elevated kappa of 21.5 in serum (but normal in urine). Could I still have cancer?
