Weight gain of 20 pounds?!

[annabelle09]

Hi everyone,

I recently started gaining a lot of weigh. I gained 20 pounds in one month, and another 5 pounds the next. I also have constant UTIs, and protienuria. Should this be a reason of concern? What should I ask my doctor?

Thanks, Annabelle09

It's been awhile but I also had that problem. Gained 20 lbs in a mth from problems with UTI's and chronic bladder inflammation. I did not get rid of that weight gain either. When I get a UTI, my flow of my urine becomes slow and I have trouble urinating (hesitancy), the problem was due to urinary retention. I could have taken a diuretic and problem solved but where you have protienuria, I don't know. Do you watch your salt intake? Are you having any trouble urinating?
