What Causes Bad Odour To Urine In A Person With Chronic Kidney Disease?

Hello... I am 66 yrs old and have CKD. I have a very bad odor in my urine. Does not have an ammonia odor to it...just really bad. Can that be related to CKD? this has been going on for some time now.When I go for my check ups, my blood work comes back ok and no UTI have been present either. Sorry, but I do not have the funds for this. I suppose I should have known there would be a fee of some type. Sorry to waste your time.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, because of the bad odor it may be due to infection and better to get done the complete urine examination, drink more water it the odor subsided then it is nothing to worry, but you will have to continue drinking more water hope this information helps.
