Have any of you had protein in your urine at this stage? I had mine checked on 8/4 which was at like 7 or 8 weeks... this was the 24 hour urine test. The scale of the test was like 25-226 and mine was 351.
I'm pretty sure I do not have a UTI - I have had plenty of UTIs in my life and I know I would not be able to go weeks without knowing I had one.
All my other bloodwork is totally normal and at my OB's office today she didn't seem very concerned about it. She said we have a baseline now and I guess they will test it again later on to see if it goes up.
I have had high blood pressure for many many years already and probably went a long time without proper treatment for it. My BP now is usually 101/68 ...everytime I go to the Dr's office it always goes up even if its for a happy visit. I hate going to the doctors no matter what it is, so I have always had bad white coat syndrome. I took my home BP measuring cuff with me to the appointment to make sure it was accurate and it was. I took it in the car on the way over and I was 104/64 and as soon as I took in the waiting room it was 143/96. Its now back to its normal range.
Are there cases of people that just happen to have protein in their urine without it being your kidneys are going kaput? I don't have any other symptoms of kidney issues and my creatinine and BUN levels were always normal.
Anyhoo, just wondering if anybody else had protein early on and everything turned out ok? I hope it doesn't automatically mean I'm going to get pre-eclampsia early.
