my blood pressure is fine......just having some foamy urine.....does anyone know other causes of foamy urine.....thanks

 

[PHIL HERNON]

Well

IF its occasional its too much protein in your diet.............is its all the time it proteinuria but who knows to what extent.

 

[oldfella]

Well, if it is a concern then talk to your gp. Get some tests done. If it is proteinuria then it can have consequences if left unchecked.

Good advice oldfella; I've had foamy urine since 1967 - and I still do. But I'm going to have a urinalysis and find out if it is a problem.

When I asked a doctor about it in 1967 he did not seem alarmed. He correlated that symptom with my inability to gain weight. I've had many, many physicals since then - and urinalysis tests without any negative findings.

My guess is that this phenomenon is related to other factors in addition to protein. I am going to the doctor on Monday to have it checked again to be sure.

If your kidneys are leaking protein, then this is a sign of kidney damage.

The only way to find out is by doing blood and urine tests.

The blood tests will check for some main markers of kidney problems such as high creatinine,potassium and phosphorus levels.

Some may argue that high creatinine is normal with bodybuilders, that is true to a certain extent, however the blood work will check for other markers of kidney damage as well.

I would do the urine and blood work right away to catch any problems before it's too late.

Agreed.

With normal kidney function, urine will contain only a negligible amount of protein, no matter how high the protein content of your diet.

Proteinurea can be caused by a number of different reasons, some benign, others quite serious. Your best best is to visit the doctor.

For example, after a life insurance test revealed protein in my urine, I required a biopsy to find out it was a condition called FSGS. While it can get serious (read: transplant/dialysis) if left untreated, I have tolerated the drug regimin the nephrologist put me on well so I shouldn't have to worry about serious complications. Had I not gotten it checked out and diagnosed though, who knows what could have happened.

Delurking because I FINALLY have something to contribute...

I had/have proteinuria, the doc says "might be a kidney stone, so I'm sending you for an ultrasound"...No big thing.

Anyway, the results come back, turns out I only have one kidney and it can only do so much, so there's some protein leaking into my urine.

Long story short, I'm on meds to support the kidney and everything is fine according to my Nephrologist.

But I'd definitely get it checked out.
