High ACR diluted urine

Hi , my husband had a urine and blood test in July this year Egfr was 93 normal , blood creatinine normal Random urine collection - Albumin 56 mg/l Urine creatinine 1.7 mmol/l ( lab sugested low creatinine , may have to redo with first morning urine) Acr was 31.8 mg/mmol which is high We have redone tests in October Egfr is same normal, blood creatinine normal And From urine results - Sample gravity <= 1.0005 (it says dilute urine) Protein - negative Albumin 36 mg/l Urine creatinine 1.3 mmol/l (same lab suggested  creatinine may falsely elevate ACR. Suggest repeat using first morning urine.) Acr is 30 mg/mmol Note - acr limit is <=3 mg/mmol Heathly male, 31 yrs, no bp, no diabetes We are confused if its dilute urine causing creatinine to be so low And the cause of this high ACR and where it's a false alarm?

Abnormal Rise Of Albumin In UACR Test

The level of albumin in my recent UACR test done on September came 0.6 mg/dl higher than the upper normal limit of the lab's reference range.However,the levels of urinary creatinine & acr came within the normal limits The levels of albumin,creatinine & acr came well within normal limits in the previous tests done on June,July & August What might be the reason of such sudden spike in albumin level within a month ? Tested from two different labs with the same urine as sample.So,no chance of reports being false positive Does it indicate early kidney disease ? Is it something serious & alarming ?
