Wrong expectation?: It's unlikely that removing your appendix (part of the GI tract) will have fixed your bladder (part of the GU tract). Time to return to your doctor & pursue further testing/treatment.

Tell your surgeon: Sounds like a residual pelvic abcess. You need a CT

Lap & open appendectomy 3 weeks ago. Still feel pain in lower center abdomen when urinates. Drain & catheter used. Urine test shows no UTI. Reasons?

Three days out from an appendectomy. No decrease in symptoms and I'm again experiencing LRQ pain. I have not had a bowel movement or passed gas. Bladder pain during urination. I have difficulty sleeping and eating. Does this warrant an appt?

Had appendectomy 9\16. Went well. Then a ruptured cyst on my right ovary a month later. Pain has decreased but my urine is cloudy, some blood and air.
