Question
A person about to get married discovers they have kidney syndrome and wants to know if it will affect the next generation.
Answer
It is recommended that this individual visit the hospital as soon as possible to determine the type of kidney syndrome. Kidney syndrome is a condition caused by increased permeability of the glomerular filtration membrane, leading to a large amount of plasma protein being lost through urine. Genetic kidney syndrome often has no obvious symptoms at the time of onset, with pediatric patients possibly only discovering mild proteinuria and hematuria in urine tests, usually exacerbated after strenuous exercise or upper respiratory infections.
