Today started fine but is not going good. I was at work and my urine was orange! Drank a lot of Water and the urine got better. But what has me worried now is since I got home from work I constantly feel hard pressure on my bladder like I have to urinate but cannot. It is very uncomfortable. Any reason for this ? Any helps?

You didn't say , but have you had surgery and if so, when?

All things considered though, the discomfort sounds like a bladder infection, which won't get better on its own. Should probably see your doctor.

Surgery was on 6/19. Haven't had any problems until today. Should I go to the er?

Sounds like a good idea to me. If you are in pain and can't wait to see doctor in the morning, I say go.

Orange urine could be just concentrated if you are dehydrated. It could also be a urinary tract infection. Since that will not go away on its own you probably should go see a doc and get checked out.

It sounds like a urinary tract infection. The emergency room probably isn't necessary but it may not hurt to go to go to an urgent care type clinic. This probably isn't a complication from surgery but the previous poster is right, it won't go away on it's own if thats what this is it will only get worse.

Thanks people. Called my doctor office and they hooked me up with the emergency doc and he thinks its a urinary infection. I m going to Cvs for a pill he's calling in. Thanks for the help all

Had one myself about 3 weeks out. Was drinking ok but still got it. Hang in there and I hope the antibiotics work. If it doesn't seem to work after 2days call back the doctor and get another kind. Not all UTI can be treated with just a basic med like amoxicillin. Bacterium and any sulfa based med is best. Or cipro.

I also had one about a month ago. I think a combo of the catheter and being dehydrated and my drinking enough Water to flush things out. A course of cipro and everythings fine!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
