What Does This Urine Test Result Indicate?

I recently applied for life insurance and was denied based on my lab results. The following was high: globulin serum 4.0; protein in urine 64.4; protein/creatinine ratio 0.83; WBC urine 145; Rbc urine 77; micro albumin 13.91; micalb/crea ratio 180; positive for leukocytes n urine, positive for blood in urine. I am 35 yr old female with a history if kidney stones and multiple stone baskets, lithtripsies done. No stones recently. Everything I m reading online points to kidney disease... Ur opinion?

Hi thanks for contacting HCM....

You have proteinuria, blood in uribe and pus cells in urine ....

So yes it is printing towards kidney infection like pyelonephritis or glomerulonephritis...
Here if edema, fever, hypertension also present then it could be acute nephritis syndrome also ....

So aboves causes searched by USG abdomen , clinical history, physical examination and x ray like work up.....

Consult nephrologists for this....

Accordibgly antibiotic or steroid needs to be given according to etiology...

If needed renal biopsy done for exact diagnosis and assessing severity....

Take care ....
