I have had a catheter for nine weeks. My urine has changed to a real dark colour and not alot is coming out . This is after a prostectomy on 07/07/2024. Is there any reason for this. I have had a uti before I think I might have it again
Thanks Eddie I went to see a my GP on Friday but they were not sure what to treat me for .gave me some antibiotics for urine infection. I did a urine sample.
And a swab as there is some bile coming out from were my catheter gose in . But unfortunately was to late to get them in for testing as it's the weekend. So suppose wait until Monday and hopefully get to see someone. Wich can be a challenge as you are probably well aware

Hi Winter1, your welcome, I had a catheter in after my TURP and ended p in A+E when all the scabs came away together, followed by a bout of haematuria, so always be careful. I'm fortunate with seeing someone, I have an open door policy with urology, 2 wonderful GPs, district nurse, my palliative care team and the oncologist at my hospice.
