Drink as much water as you can...Sounds like your might be dehydrated..Do you have a fever ?

[Geanton in reply to Fairwind]

No fever yet

[longleaf]

Call your doctor. If they think you might be dehydrated you may be able to get a saline iv to help. If the dark colored urine means something else they should know.

I am in year eight of treatment and will be having first chemo of Taxotere soon. At this point, I have only prayers and best wishes for you and all of us on this journey. We have all come a long way which proves our courage and ability to face the adversity from this disease.

From Mayo Clinic (Dr. Google):

Dark brown or cola-colored urine

Brown urine can result from:

Food. Eating large amounts of fava beans, rhubarb or aloe can cause dark brown urine.

Medications. A number of drugs can darken urine, including the antimalarial drugs chloroquine and primaquine, the antibiotics metronidazole (Flagyl) and nitrofurantoin (Furadantin), laxatives containing cascara or senna, and methocarbamol — a muscle relaxant.

Medical conditions. Some liver and kidney disorders and some urinary tract infections can turn urine dark brown.

Extreme exercise. Muscle injury from extreme exercise can result in pink or cola-colored urine and kidney damage.

Call your MD ASAP.... <===<<<

Urine luck, no charge for this service....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Thanks I when to the doctor he said it is from the chemo infusion told me to drink lots of water now I am better than yesterday

That's great. Urine luck is much better than Uranus. If you eat liver and have a nice chianti with those fava beans, I'm sure you would have brown urine.

Nice combo.... my treat.........you pay the tip....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Hang in there! Let MO know everything. Only one more to go.

Yep, drink water if you can, at this point for me I found that the only think that I could stand was pink lemonade. Sounds strange but it worked. Lots of it. Flush that poison out of your system before you end up in the ER. Fight that ouster 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
