Rude people! Not being able to do the things I want to do.
There are quite a few reasons you may have protein in the urine, you need to discuss this with your doctor to see which proteins are present and what this means.

Hi Maisiesgranny
It could be that your kidneys are working below the ideal level and protein is leaking. Thawt's a fairly usual cause. there are others of course.
The answe is you MUST ASK.Please let us know how you get on
