Message: <blockquote data-quote="viviennem" data-source="post: 219998" data-attributes="member: 31282">As some of you wil know, I always get a print-out of my blood tests from my GP. This time he's also given me my urine tests, for the first time.Under urine microalbumin profile, my urine microalbumin level is 23.00mg/l; urine creatinine level 2290umol/l; and the urine albumin/creatinine ratio is 10.04mg/ALB/mmolCREAT.This is flagged up as "Albumin:Creatinine ratios greater than 3mg/mmol are abnormal in the absence of infection. Abnormal tests should be confirmed on a repeat sample and patients considered for a review of diabetic status".Does this simply mean that my albumin:creatinine ratio is showing that I'm diabetic? The doctor seemed perfectly happy with all my results, and since the waiting-room was packed I didn't want to linger; I got my print-out later in the day.Can anyone point me to a good link where I can find out more about this, please?HbA1c was 5.2  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> .Viv  8)</blockquote>
