Actually that is what a lot of Docs did back in the 1800...
They tasted the urnine for possible diabetics to see if it was "sweet". Now thats crossing the line for me if i was a dock. Im sure if your throwing sugar off in your urine it canc be due to a few things. One possibilitie is diabetes. Ive talked witha few colleagues of mine who are mostly Internal medicine docs and I spoke of how high the testosterone use of some of us in bb is. I told his some use up to 1,500mg to 2000mg per week. He about shit his pants. He said and lifters wonder why there internal organs ar messed up. He basicly said there is not a lot of evidence of any person who has been medically supervised taking these high doses. So anything is possible. I had a friend who took everything under the sun. He was up to takeing 5 drol per day amongst tons of other shit. Anyways boom his dealer was popped midway through his hellish blast cycle. Anyways he ran out of everthing all at once. He got real depressed he felt reallly tired so went to sleep. Well he slept for 3 days straight almost. I told his parents (who were quite elderly). Come to find out he put himself in a diabetic coma. He now is a diabetic , insulin dependant. Both parents are diabetics as well so it was portionally due to that fact. However the steroids pushed the pancreas overtime and bam...........Just somehtihng to think about to get your urine checked. Heck it could be some ketones if it smells fruity....ketones are by products of burning fat instead of carbohydrates..
