Well, you would need more urination for clearing the supplements. The B's and C often cause increased urine output and that is normal.

Increased urination, also comes from glucose problems. Diabetes... and fatigue is a huge early symptom too.

What is very alarming is when urination gets LESS... this is reflective of worsening kidney functions.

So it might be a good idea to get a free glucometer and test yourself during the day and night. You might find your answers there. Keep a log to show fasting morning, 1.5 hr after breakfast (keep track of carbs), before and after lunch, after dinner, before bedtime. One Touch is the one I use because the strips are not affected by others sugars you consume or dextrins which are commonly in foods today. The other Glucometers use a different chemical system which may give false highs. One Touch may read high after high Vit C consumption, high aspirin, or gout, but it only measures glucose.

I will look into that.

However, I am slender and probably below average weight for my height, and have never been told I was anywhere near in danger of diabetes. I don't indulge in a lot of sweets and I am a complex carbohydrates kind of person.

Alot of thin people are diabetics. Look at Mary Tyler Moore for example...thin all her life!

Not every heavy person gets diabetes either. There are many heavy people who don't have it.

Diabetes is mostly a genetic thing, with autoimmune triggers, and some lifestyle contributions. Very complex...no one rule for everyone.

So, where do I get a "free glucometer"? The drug store? Or have I misunderstood something here?

One Touch has a free offer. You do have to have an RX to claim the coupon, which they email you.

FreeStyle will send you the free machine without RX, with 10 free strips to get started...but it is the other chemical type, and measures other sugars present besides glucose. You then need an RX to get strips cheaper etc, but you can buy them both, machine and strips without RXs cash in US.

The One Touch ultra mini I have varies in price from 15-19.99 depending on where you go. WalMart and Target tend to be lower.

This offer took 3 weeks to come for me...which I found was a long wait (right after Xmas).

FreeStyle from Abbott:

The deals from Abbott are better...but remember they are competing against One Touch which has some advantages over them.

Both of these mini-meters are inexpensive now. Mine is very easy to use. I got an Rx from my doctor, who is watching me closely and wanted a daily log...which I found very revealing personally! My highest sugars are in the morning fasting...called the "dawn phenomenon".
