Hello,

This represents a very elevated level of protein in the urine. The underlying diagnosis however remains unclear as we have no other information to work with. Common causes of protein in the urine include diabetes, hypertension and glomerulonephritis to name only a few conditions. If you provide more information about your past history we might be able to narrow it down. Furthermore it would be imperative to know what your blood pressure is and whether your kidney function has been checked.
