What Causes Protein In Urine After Kidney Stone Removal With DJ Stenting?
I am Type II diabetic individual, a uretheroscopy was performed on me 15 days back for kidney stone and DJ stent is placed in the bladder and kidney. Doctor had asked me to do a a urine routine, CBC and a fast and post sugar report. The sugar reports 158.6 fasting without trace of sugar in urine and post with 220.2 with sugar present in the urine. Also the urine shows protein present (+) as of now i am not on antibiotic and having zyloric, buscospan, fruselac and ganaton and patoacid(gas probelm). I now feel slightly feverish and low in the night. Please advise reason for protein and whether the treatment is in the right direction.

Hello,
Protein in the urine in your scenario is more likely due to your underlying type 2 diabetes rather than following the Dj stunting procedure.
It is however as a possible following Dj Stenting due to small injuries to the urinary tract because of the foreign body causing protein in urine.
Ankther possibility given your complaint of fever could be due to infection. I would ask you to review with your doctor if fever persists.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Karthik Rajan
