Well, tren is very kidney toxic, and ephedra affects the prostate....I would maybe have some lab work done.

I would have said that you are just dehydrated, but if you are really drinking that much water then you shouldnt be dehydrated. Tren seems to do this with me, but usually if I increase my intake of water it seems to help. Like someone else said, vitamins and supplements can cause this also.

I dont know.........I always have this problem when Im dehydrated, and when I take tren. I would probably just try to increase water intake first, even though you think your drinking enough. If it doesnt go away in a day or two then you might need to have a kidney panel ran.

I'm assuming it's even darker than amber?

I hope this helps.

The normal and most common color of urine is yellow. If it is clear, urine is usually diluted from too much fluid, i.e. the kidney is overloaded, or perhaps it just can't do its job as a filter and it lets everything through. Blood in the urine causes a different appearance. Just a drop of fresh blood changes urine to a pinkish color. This usually means irritation fairly low down in systems like the bladder. Dark amber urine, resulting from a moderate amount of bleeding, might indicate infection or inflammation of the kidneys or even small stones or gravel scraping the sides of the tubes that lead to the bladder. Bright red blood signifies a more drastic event such as erosion and bleeding from a tumor or perhaps the result of direct trauma.


What do the laboratory technologists test in urine? Acidity is important. Acid urine is normal, but if it tests alkaline it usually means too many bacteria are partying, causing an infection. Protein in a specimen is revealing. If our bodies break down too much protein (as occurs in severe muscular damage) or the kidneys get sick and can't hold back the normal amount of protein in circulation, it spills in the urine and offers a first clue to a potentially serious problem.
The microscope is as valuable a diagnostic instrument now as it was centuries ago. Much can be learned when urine is examined in this fashion. The appearance of microscopic bacteria, blood, and/or inflammatory cells indicates infection or irritation. Under a trained eye, the nature or shape of these cells may actually pinpoint the site of the problem i.e. either in the kidneys or lower down in the system.

When you get sick and have an infection your urine gets very dark and it burns a little bit. You may not be sick, but it is possible you have an infection.
