Yes there can be urine in sugar even if blood sugar remains normal. Its not normal
but in people who have low renal threshold for glucose can have sugar in urine
even if blood sugar is normal.No treatment is required for that. thanks

Dentist Dr. Akash Prasad's  Response
The renal threshold for glucose is 180 mg/dl means, when the blood glucose level is above 180mg/dl, the excess is filtered by the kidneys and passed in the urine. So, if you have Blood glucose above 180 mg/dl you'll get glucose passed in your urine.
