default
Posted on Sat, 27 Sep 2014
Question: Hello there! I appreciate your time today!I had a total laparoscopic hysterectomy on August 8th and at the same time, my bladder was repaired during the surgery. I have noticed green urine on occasion and lately, I foul smell after I urinate. Now, I don't feel any pain or need to frequently urinate but I do note that my urine is darker in color. My 6 week check up is next week. Should I be seeing a doctor now or can this matter wait until next week at my follow up appt? Thank you for your help!

Brief Answer:
You can wait for the appointment next week!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

There is no life threatening symptom or potentially concerning ongoing disease process that we should be alarmed about right now. There is no need for a special appointment to address this at this time as you are just a week away from your planned follow up visit.

Remember to mention this to your doctor during the visit. Clinical exam and maybe a urine test would be able to pinpoint any issues if there are any. However, am more of the thinking that there would be nothing to be concerned about unless something else comes up.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
