Can Bence-jones Disease Be Cause Any Harm During Pregnancy?

Hi there, I am 23 years old and 6.5 weeks pregnant. Have just had a urine test back and it says they positive for Bence-Jones in my urine. I know a little about this but could this be harmful to my pregnancy? This is my fourth pregnancy with no children, so really want to know if I need to do something asap.

Hello dear,I can understand your concern.In my opinion there might be proteins in urine.I suggest you to get an nephrologist opinion regarding that.Take high protein diet.And get BP check up done to rule out any high blood pressure.Don't worry.
