Soo I am wondering if I should go to the doctor. I have some lower back pain, and sorry if this is TMI but when I was peeing yesterday I thought there must have been soap in the toilet because it looks like soap water..but then it kept happening again, my pee looks like soap water.. I don't want to look like an idiot going there and the doc and them saying "oh you just pulled a muscle"!!
What do u think does this warrant a doctors visit?? I also want to get off work pretty bad
I'm devious, but at the same time I don't want to go if it's absolutely nothing!!

The first thing I thought of was diabetes or maybe your sugar is just out of whack right now? Or a bladder/kidney infection. Definitely a dr visit is in order....just to be on the safe side. Hope it's nothing serious and that you'll be feeling better soon.

If your pee looks like soap water, then yep...I'd go to the doctor. It can be a marker of protein in the urine. Lots of diabetics experience it from time to time. I would at least go have it checked out...especially with the back pain (which could be kidney related). I am not saying any of this is the case with you, but it is reason enough to go have it checked out, IMO.

I agree that a doctor's visit is in order, too. Back pain and funny-looking pee sounds like a kidney infection thing to me.

I hope it's nothing serious!

Sounds to me like a UTI, but it could also be a kidney stone passing.

Yeah, if you feel off, and are worried about it, then definitely call the doctor. Good luck, hope it's nothing serious!!

That's the first thing that popped to my mind.

Hum...... Yeah, if you are in pain.... I don't run to the doctor for everything.... This can be dehydration too IMHO.
I would drink a ton of water to see how "things move through" if you will, then go if don't get better. But Lower back pain can be a lot of things - from sleeping on the wrong position to kidney problems - which you would KNOW (it HURRRRRTTTSSS).
I vape (e-cigarettes), and that dehydrates - I am very used to this type of urine if I am not vigilant about drinking lots of water...
Hopefully you are getting better already!
