Was the first reading while you were drinking Crystal Light and the later after quiting drinking it Aleta? Good news either way though.

I need to get labs done this week, but do not want to, I know they are going to be bad since I haven't been drinking enough fluids along with all these recent new meds. I better get going, I have to be at one of my docs in 45 min. :banghead;

Yes, I cut out ALL artificial sweeteners, all allergy meds, and ibuprofen. I made sure I was well hydrated for 72 hours before the test and stopped exercising 72 hours before the test.

I collected 3.1 liters of urine in 24 hours.

BTW, this is the ONLY place I can talk about peeing that much without  :shy;

and I have no idea why but I actually read Aleta's urine report.

Has anybody seen the commercial about goat urine?

Sorry, Dan. Forgive me for being insensitive. Please??? :cuddle;

If I had a bunch of kidneys to give, one would go to you.  :-*

What is the ad about goat urine???

Haven't seen it.

I performed a lovely wedding up in the mountains this evening. The couple drove down from Ohio today.

Old lady sitting on front porch with a glass in her hand and a bunch of goats around.  And says put goat urine on your arthritus, etc. etc.
Its good for everything.

Then she raises her glass to the camera and say "you want some?"

And they advertise a Ben Gay type product....

funnier if you see it.

I am home now, although not really ready or wanting to be home nor wanting to be there.  Wasn't ready to be hospitalized, but really didn't surprise me when doc asked if I had any plans this week. I wasn't feeling great, but didn't feel like I needed the hospital till I had exited the office. Even though the hospital was across the street, I moved my vehicle to the hospital parking loit and just sat there trying to decide to go home or not to get stuff, but just felt to blah to do that and would have just stayed home. Boils down to to many new meds not playing well with the other meds. Now I'm suppose to go to my tx hospital who started me on the meds, but I don't feel like it. They should have known better and yet the local docs are going wtf where they thinking ???  :urcrazy;

And why would a guy call another guy hun? CNA (male) called me hun  :urcrazy; and I'm not sure how to take that without a puzzled look on my face and I wasn't that drugged up yet.

I'm still comptemplating (sp?) on wheter to go to my transplant center as suggested by local docs due to what is going on. Last couple of times I went there, they did not look into cause, just rejection and take insurance money.

It would probably be a good idea to go Chris.  The docs suggested it for a reason.  Even though you don't want to be in a hospital you said earlier that you were probably not ready to be home.  You were probably right.
