a person would have to have uncontrolled diabetes for blood sugar to show up in the urine since normally little or none does but it can show up.
Usually a doctor has to order a lab to do so.
Home urine tests are much more limited in what they can do.
Urine home tests will
1.Certain types of strips may detect the presence of white blood cells (leukocytes) that may also indicate infection but it can also happen because of other illnesses so less accurate.
2.Urine culture. Another type of home test kit is used for growing bacteria that might be in the urine. Special tubes or slides contain a substance (culture medium)
3 home ph tests
Your best bet is trained lab.
