hiya. just saw this thread. pharmacist, aka goldendelicious, and i think i can help you out with some of your questions (im looking up all the dnp threads again, ive been bitten by the fatloss bug and am thinkning of doing a run of it)
anyway the dark gold urine (looks like you poured half a glass of coke into the toilet, yes?) can be from all sorts of things.
think about what is going on in your body during DNP use, and what sort of compounds your body is going to produce. firstly youre going to ahve some of that DNP in native form, or some altered form, being passed out in the urine. then youre going to have all the byproducts of fat oxidation being passed out as well (basically youre going to be producing 50 times as much of these as you usually would) ie a bunch of chemical byproducts, ketones etc
then youre likely to have a lot of the products of protein catabolism also being passed out, namely a lot of nitrogen based stuff
on top of that youre going to have a lot of different substances produced in the liver that you nermally wouldnt have- the liver is going to be a different temperature, the enzymes used to get rid of other substances are likely going to be affected, which in turn changes the spectrum of ALL excreted chemical byproducts, as the body shuffles around using different pathways to clear its various metabolic wastes
then you ahve to think of how the kidney is coping, any changed in permeability along the nephron, any intereference with the various active pumping processes that the kidney uses to move ions etc around to where it wants them, in order to produce normal quality urine
to cut a long story short, there could be anything in there, because your body is running at an ultra high metabolism, and the effects are going to be felt body wide, impacting on practically all your organs etc.
in order to see whats in there youd have to do a test on the urine to see whats in there, but superficially i wouldnt really try to guess whats in there based on normal urine characteristics (ie color, smell, froth) because this is not at all a normal situation for the body to be in
but, if i was to take a guess, i would say that youre excreting some sort of colored metabolite of the drug (the body has likely altered the parent molecule to forma nother dye with kind of similar qualities) PLUS, your kidneys are likely shitting their pants and are a lot leakier than they normally are, and all sorts of unusual stuf is finding its way into the urine. you know, proteins, enzymes...the sort of stuff that is either reabsorbed or doesnt find its way into the urine in the case of a normal kidney cell anyway.
hope that made the mud clearer (lol) but im glad to see youre ok and off the drugs. and if that you in your av, well...you silly thing what on earth are you thinking?
if qt sees this post....the boobs! save the boobs!
cheers
