Hi Daniel!
Have you tried drinking a lot of water or do the water therapy? I'd do that before I'd consume my own (or others') waste products.  I would try the kudzu, also, before ingesting urine.  
 
Have you seen this link?  
http://skepdic.com/urine.html
 
It would be crazy to try this before trying everything else possible, wouldn't you think? After all, your body dispells this stuff after absorbing all the nutrients from it. It's really full of bacteria and other things we attempt to wash away!
 
From The Chinese Association of Urine Therapy, as quoted on that link: Common symptoms include diarrhea, itch, pain, fatigue, soreness of the shoulder,  fever, etc. These symptoms appear more frequently in patients suffering long term or  more serious illnesses, and symptoms may repeat several times. Each episode may last  3-7 days, but sometimes it may last one month, or even worse over 6 months. It is a  pity that many give up urine therapy because of such bad episode [sic]. Recovery reaction  is just like the darkness before sunrise. If one persists and overcomes the difficulty,  one can enjoy the eventual happiness of healthy life.
 
It sounds as if even they recognize that, after first drinking the stuff, you'll have some toxic effects. I know they're saying that if you stick it out, you'll reap its benefits.  Of course, you might have to wait six months or so, first.  Maybe they are mistaken. Maybe after your body gets used to it, after you are sick as a dog for a while, your body gets used to having bacteria-laden substances and your body starts to learn how to function normally (and you stop having all those horrible symptoms) despite the urine.  Maybe, by then, you are just so glad you aren't vomiting regularly, fighting of nausea and stomach aches and diarrhea and soreness that you think you're doing much better.  
 
Water therapy sounds more appealing than urine therapy, I think.  
 
Addendum: I had to add these links from the bottom of the page I cited before.  They're pretty good:

"Urine therapy refers to one of several uses of urine to prevent or cure sickness, to enhance beauty or to cleanse one's bowels. Most devotees drink the midstream of their morning urine. Some prefer it straight and steaming hot; others mix it with juice or serve it over fruit. Some prefer a couple of urine drops mixed with a tablespoon of water applied sublingually several times a day. Some wash themselves in their own golden fluid to improve their skin quality. Many modern Japanese women are said to engage in urine bathing. The truly daring use their own urine as an enema. Urine is not quite the breakfast of champions, but it is the elixir of choice of a number of holy men in India where drinking urine has been practiced for thousands of years. The drink is also the preferred pick-me-up for a growing number of naturopaths and other advocates of  "nature cures."  "
 
"sssssserve it over fruit"?
 
"truly daring"?
 
'pick-me-up'?  
 
'elixir of choice'?
 
good luck buddy!

I personally wouldn't mess with it not so much because of the "skeeve" factor but because of the potential toxins.
 
There is something to be said about building up immunity by ingesting toxins though.....
 
Then again if you want to drink piss dude ya might as well grab some cheap light beer.
 
Regardless of what you do I wish you well on your journey and path to pain relief!!!

Yes! I think that if you drink enough booze, then you can drink your own pee which is apparently now a cure!

Drinking your own waste products, or a close friend's, is not a medical treatment for any disease. It is a sign of mental illness.
 
I have a list of some treatments people have posted over the years. This one is going to the top of the "You have-got-to-be-shiting-me." list.
 
Thanks for posting it.

"Piss-Gargling For Fun & Profit"?  laugh
 
Actually, there is one thing you can do with piss that's actually kind of fun: Eat a whole bunch of asparagus, and then drink lots of water. After a couple of hours, your urine will be quite.. "aromatic." Pee into a styrofoam cup, cover with plastic wrap, and place in your freezer. The next morning, it will be frozen. By peeling away the styrofoam, you have just successfully created the "Piss Puck." Place it in a neighbor's vehicle, on their couch, toss it through the mail slot of their front door, drop it in their laundry hamper, slip it into their soup du jour... Truly, the possibilities are endless. Thus ends today's lesson in "Fun With Bodily Fluids."
 
You're welcome.  Grin

So you take your "treatment" and you say, "come here honey, give me a kiss"..... I'm quite certain that all forms of traditional affection in my household would fade to black.

Jeez,  
talk about being uptight about you own bodies guys,  
 
Most of you seem to think your piss is full of bacteria. Where on earth did you all get this idea from. I certainly hope my bladder is not a seething mass of microrganisms.
 
Seasonalboomer,  
 
Hey, I've heard rumours that American men are not realy up to it in the bedroom department when compared to us european Cassanovas, but are you trying to tell me that you wouldn't want your wife to put her lips somewhere that your pee has been? (& vice versa)
 
(think about it)
 
Actualy, I've heard that thats also ilegal in certain states

Dirky,
 
So are you saying that your wife would love to engage in a little tongue dance with you right after you've just downed a pint of pee-pee? She'd find that to be turn-on would she?  
 
First time I've heard the Welsh clumped in with the idea of "euro cassanovas". As for lips being placed where pee-pee has been, I do try to not piss all over myself before such activity is considered - i'm not sure what y'all do over there.

And actually, in all fairness, one's own urine is sterile to them. In POW camps, one's own urine can be used to irrigate and wash burns and other wounds.

And to think that the whole concept was explored on an episode of "Friends" and not "MacGyver"?

I don't know. I don't watch TV, except for boxing and Forensic Files.
 
I learned lots of handy stuff about "alternative medicine" because it was part of my training, should I ever be taken POW. Other things like using maggots to debride wounds, because they eat only dead tissue. Stuff like that...

Not interested in this therapy.  Too much nitorgenous waste products kill off your fish tank, you think I want to drink it on purpose?
 
I think it would be a matter of a reverse psychology of sorts, after you survived it, you would think the CH was not so bad afterall.
