Obstetric Cholestasis??

Karenin · January 2016

I had a stomach bug a few days ago which had me having diarrhea for a few days. While I was sick I noticed my urine had gotten very dark, which I assumed was some dehydration, but it's still darker than normal and I'm fine now. I had no stool yesterday but today it was grey. Google has me freaked about liver issues but I have zero itching. Also I just saw my OB this morning and my urine was dark when they took the sample so I'm guessing if there was a problem they would have checked? I read light stools can also happen after a stomach bug. Should this warrant a call to my OB or should I just see how things are tomorrow?

I would call for the peace of mind.

Thanks- I did call and they said it's likely the virus but to watch for itching or to see if these issues continue. I'm so anxious these days! I need to just calm down.

I've had itchy palms a couple nights this past week and was concerned about the same condition, even though that was my only symptom. I asked my OB about it at my appt on Monday and he said I would be itching uncontrollably everywhere all day, if it were cholestasis. I hope that makes you feel better. It gave me some peace.
