Proteinuria

Hi there,

I have always had bubbles in my urine, at least for the last 8 years. Recently I went to the doctor for a urinalysis because I read about the correlation between kidney disease and proteinuria. I'm unsure as to whether my bubbles are caused by protein. My test results indicated that no proteins were present in my urine specimen. My creatinine serum is 1.0. My GFR is 97.6 ml/min/1.73 msg. I'm wondering- will my GFR hold steady in the 90's? I'm 24 years old/ non-smoker/ no hypertension/ non diabetic/ no family history of kidney disease. Needless to say, the bubbles in my urine are causing me to freak out.

I am in same situation except my uric acid level is 8 instead of 7 which is little high and may be the cause of pain in elbow. Bit its not related to foamy urine, damn I keep wondering if its not because of protein then whats wrong , I started observing this foamy urine since last 1 month, sometimes its normal and again it get back to foamy. some people say its because of anxiety but i don't feel any anxiety at all.
