Someguy1383837857 18 Posted November 2, 2013 Could be Vitamins causing that, I started taking a B complex and my urine suddenly became neon yellow. Also if you aren't drinking enough Water it could have a big effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pansaw 2 Posted November 3, 2013 I was sleeved on September 24th, and I have noticed my urine was dark and had an odor to it, but though it to be typical of the recovery process. At 3 weeks post op, I saw my primary care doctor. At that visit he collected a blood sample to run a lab work up. Yesterday, two weeks later and at 5 weeks post op, my doctor told me that my fluids were low and my kidneys were functioning at less than 50%. He is now stressing me to prioritize the 64 oz of Water intake over the 60 grams of Protein, daily. Needless to say he is threatening me with a shunt implant and daily IV's to bring my Fluid levels up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
