I handed over my urine for testing ketones as part of my diet. After she was finished the clerk asked me "Would you like to keep your urine?". Oh My. Why would I want to. Seeing my puzzled look she offered "or would you like me to throw it?".
Uh, yeah, throw it. She seemed a bit surprised and I noticed that there was no other urine bottles in the waste basket. I could only picture people carrying their urine home to store for future posterity. But why?
When I booked my next appointment I understood why. I need to pay 25 cents if I want to buy a collection container.
She wasn't asking if I wanted to take my urine home, she was asking if I wanted to keep the container! Of course it would be up to me to dump the urine and clean it out. I wish it had been more clear. Could have saved a quarter.
Apparently the containers do not have to be sterile. You can use a container from home. Juice glass?
