I have to do this all the time because of my diabetes. As annoying as it is it's not that bad

I had to do this too. The worse thing was (TMI) you have to siphon it into the container
And then you have to carry it into the lab and hold it with you until they call your name

I had to do this too, but because they thought I had a kidney isssue b/c of my tachycardia. Anyways it is kind of gross but only 24hrs.
Good luck - I hope everything turns out OK

Re: Update on BP- I got the orange bottle...
I had to do this too. I had to take it to work with me..what a joy. To top it off, I never really had high blood pressure, they figured out that when they used the smaller cuff on me, my blood pressure was high. So they started using the big cuff on me and each and every time since then, I have had excellent blood pressure. But the peeing in that jug thing, I gotta admit, not something I want to lug around again. LOL

Look at the bright side...at least they will find out what's wrong so that they can react.
