Unexplained symptoms
I been having a bloated stomach for about a month and unexplained
weight gain (about 5 to 8 pounds). I went to the doctor and she did
an
urinalysis. It showed I have moderate blood and protein in my urine,
ran a culture, everything is fine. Also, my LDL has jumped from 107
to
122 in a year. I'm 42 female. They can't find anything wrong, but I
feel like something is. I have been jogging everyday and eating a
1500
calorie diet and haven't lost a pound. Also been drinking tons of
water. What could be some possible
causes of this? They checked my thyroid and for diabetes, and
everything checks out fine.

There are several types of kidney diseases that can cause these problems.
For example, IgA nephropathy (Berger's disease) and Focal Segmental
Glomerulosclerosis can cause these same symptoms that you now have. You
may want to visit these two websites to find out if you have the other
symptoms of these two kidney diseases. I hope that you do NOT have kidney
disease. If you have minor kidney problems, you may never develop kidney
disease if you follow the diet that is discussed in the book mentioned
below.

http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000478.htm
This book has an excellent section that will help you determine if you
have kidney problems. You will need a copy of your latest blood and urine
tests next to you while reading that section of the book. That section is
on pages 46-51.

Hello again,
Many GP doctors believe that patients that do NOT have creatinine levels
that are above the reference range do NOT have serious kidney disorders.
That is NOT true. There is a kidney disorder called NEPHROTIC SYNDROME
that can cause End Stage Renal Disease. There is a chapter in the book
mentioned above related to Nephrotic Syndrome. One patient mentioned on
page 161 had a creatinine level of 1.2 which is within the reference
range. That patient had glomerulosclerosis which is a Nephrotic Syndrome.
The book will help you determine if you have a kidney disorder. I should
note that some types of medications can cause protein to be in the urine.
