Hello,
I've noticed that my urine sometimes is a smidge more bubbly than normal, and sometimes it looks like there's lots of ... little stuff ... floating in it. Not fine enough to call it cloudy but not large either. Has anyone else had this issue? I'm worried about excess protein. My latest round of tests have my FLC amounts and ratio within normal levels but M-Spike popped up slightly to 1.3 from 1.2 six months prior. Currently on an annual testing cycle but the urine has me concerned. No other symptoms, luckily.
Just curious if this is something I should contact my doc about. Thx.

It would be good to have renal bloodwork that includes your GFR (glomerular filtration rate) and albumin and creatinine levels. MGUS can sometimes smack one's kidneys around. I've had IgA Kappa MGUS for 8 years, and this year chronic kidney disease showed up; my only other risk factors are being 70 and having celiac disease. Bubbly and protein bits in urine suggests one's kidneys are not filtering proteins as efficiently as they should. Urinary tract infections commonly have different symptoms (itchy, smelly,...).
