Hi All,

Since Friday night, I've had a burning sensation when I pee.
I get this occasionally and then it's gone by the next day, but it seems to be sticking around this time.

Saturday I ordered some Urinalysis strips. I have used 1-2 a day since Sunday.
Sunday and Monday results were fine, no bacteria or nitrites, no protein, no blood.

Today I have used the strips 3 times, and I'm quite concerned because the Protein part has been coming back positive. When I say positive, I mean it's a colour between 0 and trace.

Of course, I've been googling again and ANY protein in your urine can indicate kidney damage, especially in younger individuals. uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
The Lansoprazole I'm on can also cause kidney problems.

First day of panicking for some time, but I'm struggling today.

I started CBT for the 3rd time yesterday too, which I have been very nervous about.

Can anyone give me some advice/their own experiences?
I'm trying to stay away from my doctor surgery because I've been going an awful lot the past few months and need to break the cycle.


Thanks
