Question on Hepatitis. Please help.?

Question

Ive tried researching on hepatitis on the net and came across "DARK URINE" in the list of symptoms. What does this mean? Does it mean a deep yellow color, another color perhaps or does it mean turbid-looking? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

One of the most dangerous aspects to hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is that many people do not have noticeable symptoms. This makes HBV a truly invisible enemy because people who have the disease can unknowingly pass it on to others.

HBV infection may cause flu-like symptoms, such as:
Extreme tiredness
Fever
Headache
Loss of appetite
Nausea and vomiting
Muscle aches
Other symptoms may include discomfort under the right rib cage, joint pain, dark brown urine and yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice)

Answer 2

Dark colour, cola like, but this can be caused by food ar concentrated urine, if you have a reason to suspect you have hepatitis (you have the symtoms listed in another answer) or you are just worried about your urine colour, do a urine analysis.

Answer 3

My brother was with a lot of women and one gave him Hep C (while shooting heroin)! He didn't know he had it at all until he got married and went for a check up years (like 5 years) later. He had no symptoms. Luckily he had not given it to his new wife, but it messed up his organs. Go get yourself checked, or if you are asking for a friend tell them to go get testing done. The earlier you find it, the less damage it will do. I have two Uncles that have had it, didn't do anything about it, and died within the last few years due to the damage it created.

Answer 4

I wouldn't use urine as the marker...go to a dr

Answer 5

Answer 6
