Does Morganella Have A Distinct Odour?

My daughter (now 7yr) 52lbs 4ft 2 in has 2nd degree reflux and has been off suppression therapy for awhile now with no UTI s until now....Usually I can diagnose what bug she is growing in her urine based on her symptoms.....E-coli - a very distinct odor with no other symptoms Club C - high fever/vomiting with no other symptoms... Urinary frequency with no other symptoms - enterocaucus. Now her urine has a very nasty smell, especially in the morning (it actually made me nauseous)....ua so far is just WBC s .....This happened a long time ago and I am pretty sure that she grew morganella.....Does Morganella have a distinct odor?

Hi,

Unless you have culture proven colonies of the morganella, you cannot stamp urinary infection distinct smell as to be of morganella associated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
