Is Thick, Dark Orange Urine While Having Melanoma Suggest Kidney Failure?
My father in law has stage 4 melanoma. It has spread to lymph nodes, spine, and blood. His urine has drastically changed today. Thick, dark orange. He has began drinking less but still consuming lots of fluids. Is this a sign of kidney/liver failure?
