@user_ch245cc7a, in
Glomerulonephritis (GN) used to be called Bright's disease and is sometimes referred to as nephritis. Alport syndrome is a disease that damages the tiny blood vessels in your kidneys. Alport syndrome causes damage to your kidneys by attacking the glomeruli.

Have you received a further diagnosis of Alport's syndrome?

Hi Coleen thanks I have not received any diagnosis of Alport I just thought that maybe the basement syndrome may be why the urine has tiny bit of blood. I think Lupus is hereditary. I just know that it’s different for everyone. I did have a double stranded dna test in 2000.
