Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 My little 5 year old has been in " crisis " this past week brought on by a strep A infection (cellulitis) at his gtube site. He has a foley in during his crisis times due to autonomic dysfunction. Anyhow, in sometimes previous, during crisis, will have small amounts of Protein in his urine. Well this time and continuing now he has fairly large (+1-+3) amounts of protein in his urine. He is also loosing glucose (+3) in to his pee while his blood sugar is only 3.9 (borderline hypoglycemic). His ped. ordered a 24 hour urine for protein and creatnine. We will drop that off this morning. HOwever, I would love to know if the kidney issues are found in kids with mito or if we are looking at a very unforunate child who has a lot of bad luck.
