Kidney Issue - Protein Leakage in Urine
I was diagnosed with IGA nephropathy in 2015 after a kidney biopsy. Kidney biopsy was done since i was leaking proteins in urine. I took medicine for 1 year and later the protein leakage came down to normal.
Now I am leaking protein again in the urine and 24 hrs urine sample shows protein leakage of 2g+.
Doctor has advised Kidney biopsy again now.
I am also a type 2 diabetic .
Need doctor advise on my issue and their opinion and what could be the reasons for this issue. ?

You need close monitoring of kidney function and restrictions on proteins. The medication that was given earlier needs to be continued and dose to titrated. Be in follow up with nephrologist as any decline in the kidney function can be diagnosed early and can be treated effectively
