way too little info - wish I could be of more help.
proteinuria can be caused by a number of things, but is usually due to hypertension and/or diabetes - usually there are levels to the amount of protein found - trace to large. do you know your protein to creatine ratio? if there's 30mg of albumin (protein) to every g of creatine (normal muscle breakdown) or more, there's a problem with your kidneys most likely. how was your kidney function tested? creatine blood tests? do you have hypertension as well? are you already on any ACE inhibitors?
there are specific pathologies related to the actual kidney and glomerular/nephrotic syndromes, but you might need to see a urologist/nephrologist to rule any of that out.
as someone with T2, however, they will most likely put you on an ACE inhibitor and maybe insulin, if you're not already on either/both. this would be to take tertiary preventative measures so that it doesn't worsen.
good luck!
