What Does Frequent And Dark Urine Indicate?

Hi. Starting last night, I started having dark urine out of nowhere. I'm prone to kidney stones, but have no pain anywhere. I've also urinated quite a bit, but I chalk that up to drinking so much brown soda (which I normally don't) the past few days, could that be it?

Brown soda will influence excretion of calcium, oxalate, and uric acid, which contribute to stone formation.
