Yesterday and today I am wiping orange after I pee/poop. Has anyone experienced this? I am 3 months post op?

Have you switched or made any changes to your vitamins or medications? Be sure it is not blood.

No changes. I went ahead came to ER. I’m not in any pain.

I have had oddly coloured poops after eating certain foods (beets are a big one, for example.) Have you eaten any very colourful foods that might have 'bled' into your bowel movements?

Either way, probably a good idea that you are seeing a doctor, just to double check!

Orange stools are often caused by eating red or orange foods. Supplements containing beta-carotene and aluminum hydroxide can turn stools orange. A lack of bile salts is one medical reason that can cause orange stool (from Google).

What did the Dr' s say?

They did blood work and urine test. All tests came back normal. I was told to follow up with primary doctor if it continues. I also had a bad cough so got a prescription called Bromfed? I advised dr about not getting anything with NSAIDS...anyone taken this cough syrup?

Glad to hear all came back ok. I am 5 weeks post op and I to have the orange urine. I think it's due to dehydration. I don't have any pains anywhere and my bowel movements are fine. So working on my fluid intake.
