Guest guest Posted August 12, 1999 Report Share Posted August 12, 1999 , I believe that the lighter the stool and the darker the urine, the more you might have to worry about. White/clay colored stool, as someone mentioned I think, generally indicates that the liver is functioning very poorly. The doctor told me that extremely dark urine is a result of bile in the urine. As my condition improved, the more " normal " my colors became. Isn't that a helluva way to have to try to judge your own condition?

I have to laugh as I read this because I have become a stool watcher--how many other people, other than toddlers, look to see what color the water or the " waste " is every time they go?

Guest guest Posted August 12, 1999 Report Share Posted August 12, 1999 Perhaps more than a hobby we should consider this a new vocation----waste products color analyst or some such wonderful title. HA HA Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
