Suggest Remedy For Problem In Urine

hi dr grief I am a 64 who other than trying marijuana at age 20 has never used drugs. I did not like the marijuana and only did it the one time. my husband and I are in texas and due to some bad times are living in our car for 2 weeks. We will be fine after that. Last week I went to the womens shelter here and passed a background check but when they drug tested me it showed positive for meth. I was stunned! They allowed me to retest 7 days later (today) and same thing! I am mat my wits end because I am NOT A DRUG USER. tHE ONLY MEDS I HAVE TAKEN IS IBRUPROFIN OR ALEVE FOR RELIEF FROM ARTHRITIS. I NOTICED THAT MY URINE SAMPLE BOTH TIMES WAS REAL DARK ALMOST LOOKED LIKE PURE GOLD. wHAT COULD CAUSE THIS AND WHAT CAN I DO?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if you are on NSAID (Non-steroid Anti-inflammatory drug ) Ibuprofen then such dark brown color may be likely, this is nothing to worry and this would comes to normal color if you drink more water else this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care.
