I'm curious, is it normal to find traces of protein in a complete urine test when you have a fever? Can you explain if that's something to worry about?

Traces of protein in the urine means a small amount of protein ,which could be normal or due to urinary tract infection.But a larger amount of protein indicates serious disorders of kidneys. You could repeat the urine analysis after few days and if it shows presence of protein , you need to go through further tests.

I've been diagnosed with albumin in my urine, and I also have diabetes and high blood pressure. My blood urea and creatinine levels are at 1.2 and 40, respectively. Are these levels risky, and what steps should I take next?

In conclusion, albumin in urine is an early sign that should not be ignored, especially if you're already dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, since your kidney function tests are still normal, this is a good sign, and with proper management, the risk of kidney damage can be minimized.

I'm a bit worried about my recent kidney function blood test results. I had it done yesterday, and I saw that my serum creatinine is 0.9 mgdl, BUN is at 10.16 mgdl, uric acid level is 2.7 mgdl, and calcium is 9.34 mgdl. What's got me concerned is that the uric acid level is below the normal range. Is this something I should be worried about or get treated? By the way, I only have my right kidney because I had a nephrectomy on my left kidney at birth. Any advice would be appreciated.
