My wife has albumin in her urine along with a UTI. There isn't any sugar showing up in her urine, but she does have a history of diabetes. Should I be concerned and check her diabetes levels?
Albumin in the urine can be a sign of kidney damage, especially in the presence of a urinary tract infection (UTI). Since your wife has a history of diabetes, it is important to monitor her blood sugar levels regularly. I recommend checking her blood sugar levels and consulting with a healthcare provider to determine the best course of action. In the meantime, she can take antibiotics for the UTI and ensure proper hydration.
