Does Duplex Kidney Syndrome Cause Dehydration?

Hi I have had a duplex kidney since birth and have had a pain across my middle for the last week. The problem I have is my boss banned drinks on our desks last week and I used to have a bottle of water my wee is dark now and is usually clear. Should I go to the doctor to get a doctors note so I can drink the water. I am wondering if I am dehydrated due to my condition

Duplex kidney won’t cause dehydration. If the renal function is normal, the duplex kidneys won’t harm you. Consult a physician and get evytonfkmd out the cause for dehydration and excessive water intake. Make sure that your blood sugar level is well controlled as diabetes can be a cause similar symptoms.
