Answers:
My daughter tested with protein in her urine also.... but the second testing was neg. I was a bit worried since she is prone to kidney infections without a UTI first. I can give you what info I have found and hope for the best for you. Your Dr should test her 3 times, a month apart, before sending her to a nephrologist (kidney Dr)Health Question & Answer

That number sounds quite normal, quite good. I just had mine tested and it was at a 1. My doc says it's good as long as it's less than 20, which is the level where microalbuminuria kicks in. What is your concern.?Health Question & Answer

Protein in urine can show either kidney infection (UTI) or kidney disease. Unfortuantely, it can also indicate cancer.

Follow doctors order, and have her re-checked regularly.Health Question & Answer
