Do Urine Test Results Indicate Onset Glycosuria?
Hello I had a fasting urine test done and the results was 1+ glucose in my urine. I under stand when glucose is found in the urine when it exceeded the capacity of the kidneys. What level in mg/dl does 1+ glucose represent? Does the mean I have onset Glycosuria?

hai,
Possibly with 1+ glucose in urine test indicates glycosuria.
sometimes in dipstick method it shows false positive.
clinical correlation should be ruled out.
it occurs in diabetes mellitus.i advise you to go for Glucose tolerance test to confirm the condition. there is condition like renal glycosuria but it rarely occurs.
thank you
hope i answered your query
