As per today's urine test, my Total Protein in Urine = 154.0 (Reference 0^150) Is this something that I should be concerned of?

I’m from Australia. my total protein is 72 g/L what is normal here is (60-82) your measurements could be different. What is your eGFR. should be advised by your Doctor.

i don’t know how old you are but 85 eGFR is very good, certainly no kidney failure.

Having low salt diet could lower your protein levels. What has your Doctor advise you ?.

My Doctor told me not to worry about the protein levels. I really do not know if she is correct :

Your doctor is probably right, since your eGFR is good. But if you are worried about it, get a second opinion from another doctor,
