Hi Dr.John. As an Urologist,i can understand your anxiety.
As you're aware,proteinuria is best assessed by doing the following tests :
1. 24 hours urine protein and culture test.
2. blood routine,creatinine,RBS,LFT,uric acid,and platelets.
3. ultrasound scan-KUB,with residual urine.
The Urologist will examine him,check the vitals and after seeing the reports,can give an expert opinion on further treatment.
If you want my expert opinion,send all reports as a direct question to me.
