I just found out I been spilling protein in my urine so the doctor as sent me to the lab for more test but he thinks it might also be a bladder infection as there was white blood cell too in it what do think it could be any ideas:confused:
With the presence of WBC's, they'll do a urine culture and you'll have results a day or two later with what they appropriate antibiotic is, if indicated.
Proteinuria (protein in urine) is pretty non-specific. It can come from something as simple as strenuous exercise to something as serious as chronic kidney disease.
I wouldn't worry too much, though. Just go to the lab and get the tests done and follow up. More than likey, it's a bladder infection or UTI - with antibiotics, no problems.
