A member asked:
Greetings, i had a lower lumbar epidural out patient procedure 4 days ago. today my urine is lime green, does propofol take that long to pass?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The lime green: color is a common condition after use of Propofol! The length of time after its use depends on your fluid intake! Sounds like you need to drink more fluids!! Hope this helps and I hope your ESI worked as well! Dr Z
