What Causes Cloudy Urine In Diabetic When Having Signs Of Fatty Liver?
I am diabetic. Recent test results showed I have signs of a fatty liver. My urine has been cloudy off & on for a couple of weeks. I m taking another round of antibiotics for sinus & ear infection. Could cloudy urine be a result of that or something more serious that I need to see a doctor about?

Dear sir
Cloudy urine might indicate lot of signs like it might be caused due to
1. Increased protein excretion
2. Presence of urine casts
3. Presence of RBCs in the urine
4. Urinary tract infection
In case of fatty liver, there will altered metabolism in the liver. Fatty liver might increase the serum LDL and Triglycerides which when not controlled with the help of statins it might cause urine to be turbid.
Thirdly you need to exclude protien excretion but doing complete urine examiation with all the parameters.
thanks
