Better to avoid fasting since dehydration can worsen the kidney function and also lead to kidney stones.

Hi
During your fast there may be slight changes in serum creatinine level however that won’t affect your kidneys per se.
Avoid dehydration. At Suhoor and Iftar keep yourself hydrated and consume vegetables and fruits more than meat.
Next Steps
If proteinuria worsens needs further evaluation.
Consult for further information
