Is ths Micro Albumin test is neccessory for Diabetus patients?
One of the diabetic complications is diabetic nephropathy. Hypertensive patients may also suffer from kidney failure.
Anyone with diabetes should have this test yearly. The test checks for signs of early kidney problems.
People with diabetes have a higher risk of kidney damage. In the early stages of kidney problems, you may have no other symptoms. Even other blood tests may be normal.
Your doctor will want to see if you have any kidney damage before it has become very bad. This helps you get treatment before the problem gets worse. People with severe kidney damage may need dialysis. They may even need a new kidney.

sir i do my urine test every 3 months for micro albumin is it ok or do it more early as u stated that one should do it once in a year
no harm if you get this test done, I too get them every 6 to 9 months, 24 hour albumin/microalbuminuria, 24 hours urine proteins, Creatinine Clearance Test, these will give greater clarity
Doctors prescribe these tests to rule out certain common complications that are usually observed among diabetics,particularly with advancing age.The inconvenience of undergoing the test is insignificant when compared to the complications that my be detected and treated in time.
