Protein in Urine
Got 10mg/dL protein in Urine routine test. Is it normal? I was a patient of Nephrotic Syndrome was 19 years ago and it was cured in 4 years and currently not under any medications from last 15 years. I recently got diagnosed with UTI caused by E. coli bacteria and the traces of protein, RBCs and WBCs were found in urine and infection in blood. Is it because of kidney or is it a normal UTI? Is there a chance that my Nephrotic Syndrome is coming back?

Urine infection increases protein in urine. Get proper treatment for urinary tract infection. Thereafter repeat the urine routine examination and urine PCR test. It is unlikely that Nephrotic syndrome return after 15 years. Take care
