Stool and Urine Color????

I am currently taking Incivek, riba and peg.  Yesterday I noticed that the color of my stools and urine are yellow.  Also while having a bowel movement it felt like razor blades coming out.  I know disgusting.  Just curious if this is happening to anyone else and if it is what can we do about it???

I hate to keep harping on this but you might try some fiber. If you aren't allergic to wheat you can have a little bran cereal, it is good for you, tastes awesome (at least to me) and helps with some of the potty issues. I only started the fiber stuff last year and was concentrating so much on fat and stuff the first week of treatment that I forgot my fiber. Extreme gastric problems caused me to try to add the fiber back even tho I didn't think it would work. It did tho.

I am having the same experience.  Yesterday I got some hydrocordisone suppositories and those with the balneol lotion, tucks and baby wipes seem to be helping.  I have also tried to eat more fiber and cheese in an attempt to have a more solid stool.  I find this is also helping since I am not going to the bathroom as frequently.

Hang in there!

The color has also changed for me also for the first 2 weeks and now it's seems back to normal. I wouldn't say my feels like razor blades but after a bowel movement and even a shower feels like diaper rash, slight burning for a couple of hours. Just anther wonderful side of the meds.
Good luck
