CHOSEN72 6 Posted November 22, 2012 HEY everyone, well, I went to my primary doctor yesterday and She gave me the "Okay" to proceed with my requirements I need for surgery. Here the problem. For some Reason the have found "PROTEIN" in my urine. This is the second time! I have to go back and see her on Tuesday to discuss medication. I'M a little worried because I Really don't understand what or Why this is happening. I have been diagnosed with diabetes. Could this be the cause of the Protein? Is having this problem going to Keep me from getting my surgery? If not will the protein go away like my diabetes will? I'M lost, I know I will discuss it with my primary doc on Tuesday, but in the meantime, in-between time I need some advice )-:. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mom2lucky (suznc) 81 Posted November 22, 2012 Diabetes affects the entire body's organs so the proteinuria could be associated with the diabetes affecting the kidneys. I would think this would be even more reason to have the surgery. Whatever is going on is in the early stage or may be false positive so don't let it consume your thoughts until you go back to the doc. When is your surgery? 2 CHOSEN72 and ladyspl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
