Hello,
I had my lap is Sep 2006, after 2 days I developed high fever for a
week, during that time I think I saw some blood in my urine, so I went
to see my gyne, The did put me on antibiotics & she immedialtely ordered
me Pelvic CT scan on the same day. Fortunately the CT scan didnt show
any infection & everything seemed fine. And after that I didnt notice
any blood. Please talk to your doctor, because if they worked on your
bladder during the lap, you need to verify if some infection hasnt
developed. Wish you all the best.
