What is your doctor telling you? Constant UTI's or kidney infection can lead to long term problems with your kidneys if the antibiotics are not working.

You may need to have further tests to see why you have a lot of protein in your urine.
How much protein do you have in your urine when they test you?

Any other symptoms?

Talk to your doctor, stress your concerns to him/her as well.
