Well come to HCM
Appreciate your concern
Looking to the lab result this could be renal pathology, but condition need to be correlate with the clinical condition and symptoms
Advise:
May need some investigation like ultrasonography test CT imaging
Have a word with Urologist
Hope this information helps, take care.
