Anyone else have a Redundant / Tortuous Colon?

Most recent diverticulitis event presented with very orange urine. Although my culture was clear, the doctor prescribed Flagyl and Cipro. I had every side effect rash, vomiting, and green stools in addition to the diarrhea and pain of diverticulitis. I later read that the inflamed colon lying against the bladder can cause urine discoloration. Has anyone else experienced this symptom?

@bla47 - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I've not heard of orange urine, and it would startle me, for sure.

Did your doctor confirm that this was the reason for the orange urine? Is the diverticulitis event all done now? Also wondering if you have a redundant colon?
