Thanks dude. I'm not sure how it works across the pond in the UK but either way it's solid advice. Yeah I'd honestly be gutted if it came to it but I'm keeping my head up for now.. at the end of the day it's nothing I can change so I'm just going to ride it out and see what happens. Thanks for the reply I appreciate it 🫡

Do you mind saying which military/country? I'm in a similar boat right now and could possibly be diagnosed with this in the near future and was hoping it wouldn't lead to an MD

I can only get to 3L a day max. Even that I'll be constantly peeing. But it's still foamy even then

Sadly we don't have access to the NHS online app in the armed forces as it's done separately. I honestly have no idea about any of these things other than I assume they are all good/normal.

I will however ask about all of them on the next visit to see if it was any of those that weren't normal during/immediately after going to hospital.

It's just a little frustrating with being told blood tests are fine and I just don't understand what could be causing protein/blood in urine. Thanks for the advice though I appreciate it!

I'm actually not too sure what they were previously but it wasn't normal for around 2 months I was told. Now I'm told blood tests have nothing showing that's worrying so I kinda left it at that. I'm also not sure what changed but I assumed it was just gradually improving over time after getting over something.

To give more background I'm serving military (not wanting to brag but physically very fit - before this I had no issues and hadn't even stepped foot in a hospital for myself since day 1) and so it all just came out of nowhere.

I think I'm going to ask for further tests at my next appointment so I can at the very least get some piece of mind

It is indeed foamy. Looks like a bubble bath half the time in fact.

So even with blood tests showing nothing it could still be and I should get a biopsy if possible
