Low Urine Output for Urinalysis

[LabRat]

I'm not really sure if this is the right place for this question, if not I'm sure it will be moved.. 

This morning I went and did the bloodwork and urinalysis for both my GP and my neph whom I will be seeing at the end of August. I'm in Stage 3 Damage/Failure... in the past when I've had to pee in a cup, usually I'm able to fill it up and continue peeing like a racehorse.

Well I had to do a 12 hr fasting lastnight, so not sure if that played a part or not. This morning I didn't quite fill the little jar up. Which struck me as odd. Thoughts anyone?

It sounds a bit like the fasting might have done it.  See how you go tomorrow.

I agree with Mary. At stage 3, the urine should be flowing merrily. Let us know how you go.

Make sure you ask next time what fasting really means for the tests you're getting. With mine I can still have as much water as I want but nothing else to eat or drink. Your veins are easier to access if you're properly hydrated.
