What Causes Urine Odor With A History Of Hepatitis?

I am ill and have been for many years. I have noticed that in the past 3 weeks that my urine smells like vitamin s and I do not take them. I am in stage 4 of hepatitis C and have also have pancreatitis and now the are checking me for lymphoma. I do not understand what this smell is and should I do to ER? I also feel sick and am sweating alot. Thank-you, Meeshell

Hi,

Thanks for your query on HCM

I do understand your concerns

With such presentations in my clinic, I would first rule out infections for which I may suggest my patients a urine culture and if infection is found treatment is a course of antibiotics as per report.If no infection is found in urine then do an ultrasound examination to rule out kidney stone.

Hope that helps

Please let me know if you have further questions before meeting your primary care Doctor.

Thanks and wish you a good health
