Question : Can an UTI cause albunim in my urine, I 'm type 2 diabetic ?

Brief Answer:
Yes...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Albumin in urine can be seen when there is urinary tract infection. But as you are diabetic, I would recheck urine albumin levels again after treating urinary tract infection.

Hope this answered your question. Let me know if you need clarifications.
