Dear friend, welcome to HCM.
the urine routine report reveals trace of albumin, which is not bad.
but 4+sugar means elevated sugar excretion , usually he will have high blood sugar too, indicating diabetes.
but needs confirmation on blood sugar fasting and PP (after food) , and corresponding urine sugar, ketones.
pl. see your doc to get evaluated for diabetes and kidney affection due to the same.
take care . and keep me updated on his progress..
