Too much urine

para33 · 04-23-2012, 08:14 PM

I woke up at 11am and cathed. Had an 8 ounce glass of water and a protein bar. I then cathed about 2:30, decent ammount. I went out for a drive, came back at 6:30. Urine was
pouring out of me, I cathed and got almost 1,000 cc. How could drinking 8 ounces all day produce so much urine? Is this normal? Im a t12-l1 with flaccid bladder.

Did you have a salty dinner or snacks yesterday? I will have what I call a salt dump about 18-24 hours after I consume salty foods. My body seems to hold the water until it "dumps" all at once with never ending urine. Only associated with water that seems to be held in the tissues until the salt clears my body even though it all seems normal until the salt dump occurs usually in the early afternoon thenext day.

May be just my imagination too, but it seems to be that way for me.

Do you feel dehydrated?

No, not at all.

Your kidneys continue to filtrate continuously and you have liquids stored in your stomach intestine etc......
