I have protein & blood in my urine. Had the flank pain also. They did a kidney biopsy & found I had Lupus & stage 3b kidney disease. My blood work never showed the markers for Lupus. I'd ask your doctor to check your kidneys better

Hi. There are many reasons that your urine smells like cat urine, or ammonia.

If you've already tried hydrating (great idea), it might be worth considering other options and/or seeing a doctor.
My urine smells like amonia and my hair has beenfalling out from the roots , it's never happend like this before.
