Dark Urine After Gall Bladder Removal. Normal LFT And Blood Test. Normal?

Abdomen ultrasound was normal except stone in CBD and gallbladder , so my Gall bladder has been removed 1 month back after ERCP for stone removal from CBD. The stent kept in CBD has been removed after 2 weeks. I was perfectly al right except following small issue. Whenever I don t drink much water my urine colour is darker.I don t have any other problem. LFT has been checked recently and came back to normal. Random Panel & blood test (automated) done before the surgery. It was normal. I have observed the most of the people are talking about this in internet, will my problem go away with time?

Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.Ratnakar Kini and I am pleased to assist you.

Since the LFT is normal, and that the symptoms are only intermittent, there is no need to worry.
The darker urine is probably concentrated urine as you have mentioned that this happens only when you do not drink water much.
Drink enough water/fluids.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards,
Dr.Ratnakar Kini
