What could cause a neg anion gap on blood test w low albumin and low tot protein? seen it on blood work over the past year. have ruq pain no diagnosis

Reason for concern: You have low Albumin and protein, this is not a matter that should go unexplained. You are either not producing enough Albumin or you are loosing proteins too fast. You should have a diagnosis, you doctor should figure it out.
