yuck when I peed today a black chunk of charcoal stuff the size of a buttermint came out. I have had little pieces of that before but never a huge chunk like that-anyone else experience that? Plus my pee was foamy and smelly- I am so grossed out ::)Oh dear. Love you guys and hope your day is great!

Surely that must have been terribly painful and obviously should have caused some bleeding.
Not sure whether you're male or female.
Could that have been a kidney stone? Major Ouchie!
No, personally have not had that experience.

Ibzahp,
Has that happened just one time?
I wonder if you can go in a jar just in case it does it again. I know that might not be realistic either.
There's a couple of things I'm wondering. (I'd posted this awhile back) but one day, I was getting a glass of water, and as I was getting ready to drink it, I noticed a couple of little black charcoal looking pieces in the bottom of the glass.
I didn't know if it was charcoal or not that broke loose (if that's possible) from the R.O. system. But I sure got freaked seeing a little charcoal like particles in the bottom of the glass. Made me think something was in the water.
Ibzahp, could it be that the charcoal piece was from the water?
Another experience I had too, was the same as you. After I 'went'...I looked, and because I drink so much water and fluids all day long, mine is pretty clear, except early in the day, because I take B-complex, which makes it orangy.
I saw black particles in the bottom of the toilet (this was less than 2 weeks ago)...but I thought I might have flicked my cigarette, and wasn't sure.
So I'm finding this VERY interesting about you saying this.
I'm going to start paying more attention too and look at the water very closely when I get a glass of water, and when I look at the toilet bowl to see if any - even tiny particles might be settling at the bottom at all.
The other day, when I saw those particles, my first thought was the same as yours..that they came out of me! But then I thought...geeeze, did I flick my cigarette or not?
But I know for a fact a few years ago, those particles in the bottom of my glass of water, came out of my RO faucet...so I sort of wrote that off to it being "charcoal".
But ...maybe it wasn't. Maybe something IS in the water. Don't know, so we can keep our eyes open for this.

:DHmm. I have had smaller particles come out of mewhen bathing or peeing but never anything large like this. I am going to make a habit now of looking before and after everytime and see whether its the water or me! (whatever "it" meaning the charcoal is).

ok wow.. thanks for making this thread because i was trying to find a less embarassing way of sharing my story.. but you're provided the perfect situaiotn so here goes..
so i've been living in a friend's RV they're letting me use.. but there's no toilet/sink pluming.. so i have to go outside or in jars if i need to pee. then i'll take the jars away later.. because sometimes it's too cold or inconvenient to go outside... there's a lengthy process to opening the door etc..
anyway i was taking out the jars the other day.. and noticed how strange my urine was.
some of them literally had a strange "slush" coagulated on the bottom of them.. and some had a filmy layer that had formed at the top...
i'm seeing more and more... connections to our kidneys through all this.
when i pee.. i can POTENTLY smell what i'd just eaten i've read that that's an over abundance of protein in the urine.. which is caused by the kidney's filter not filtering our protein... which is actually connected to a CHANGE in the genes that produce laminins ... the cross-shaped molecules that keep our cells bonded together... this also can cause blistering and peeling skin ... somethign i've been dealing with through all this... my hands and feet peeling like crazy.
so yeah.. weird stuff in the pee... toxins that have built up and are being expelled imo. kidney-centric.

Yes Acacian I have noticed a distinct (and rather nast odor emanating from my pee and filmy/foamy stuff on the top that wasn't there in the past and is now sometimes present. Plus the morgie black ring around the comode. It is an embarassing subject but better to figure out whats going on. Kidney involvement makes sense. But whats that charcoal crud? I suspect its the same as the black specks. I wonder where in my body this stuff isn't invading. I am telling it to leave my body now!
