What are symptoms of high microalbumin?
If you have a high albumin level in your urine, you will likely not have symptoms. However, if your kidney function continues to worsen, you may have symptoms like swelling in your feet and ankles, feeling tired or weak, low appetite, and trouble concentrating. Once kidney disease progresses, it can be hard to reverse. That’s why it’s important for people who are at risk of kidney disease, such as those with diabetes, to have the microalbumin test once a year or as often as recommended by their healthcare provider. Early treatment can help prevent additional health problems.
