I definitely had that, and I didn't worry about it. I believe it's the nature of the drug that causes that. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water and be on the lookout for kidney stones

I have that and they said it's me peeing out my calcium ( idk how true that is but i am low on calcium and they say it's due to the diamox, I love my calcium rich foods and my blood tests show i'm low so yea... boo)

but i wouldn't worry to much about it.

Hi Mary, yes, its all normal while taking Diamox.
I find this more in the morning and as the day progresses, while I drink gallons, it is almost clear by bedtime.
But, only to start all over the next day!
But don't worry, its ok and we all have it. Cath
