Thanks for the feedback, I will request a diabetes test just to be safe, and maybe cut out some protein for a period.
I should also note that I currently have quite a high blood pressure for some reason.
To nervous_nikki: I had a urine test to which the doctor deemed fine, but also said that my urine was very clear'(Unconcentrated)'if you like.
Is it possible that i have reduced renal funtion or would that have that showed up as part of my kidney tests?
Some of the test included: Urea - 3mmol/L, creatinine - 69umol/L and protein 77g/L.
Much appreciated.
1. go for bloodwork
2. urine analysis
3. try eliminating the protein for a day or two and see if the symptoms susbside
I would probably rule out diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is hallmarked by the "3 Ps" polydyspsia (excessive thirst), polyphagia (excessive hunger), and polyuria (excessive urination)...you do not have the first two good luck!!
"Polyuria" is the catch-all term for excessive urination.
I googled around a little, and found some causes - diabetes insipidis being the one that sounds maybe like what you are experiencing.
In this link, patients with diabetes insipidis experience a decrease in Polyuria (excessive urination) when protein in the diet is restricted.

Best wishes tracking this down - it does sound like you're "in the hunt" with finding out what is wrong with you when you notice protein affects your urine output.
I would consider getting a physical and labwork done. On your first visit, your physician definitely should rule out diabetes and/or depending on your gender: UTI or a prostate condition.
