I have an upcoming urine analysis (UA) on Monday, May 17. I have been using cocaine periodically, with the last use being on Saturday, May 8th. I have been drinking apple cider vinegar and water, and plan to work out vigorously. Should I use a 2-day body cleanser, and will the trace enzyme stored in my fat be detected in the UA?

I had my appendix removed on August 15th due to acute appendicitis. About 4 weeks ago, I went to the ER with abdominal/pelvic pain, and a CT scan showed slightly prominent lymph nodes near the appendix site and a small cyst on my right ovary. I still have discomfort in the right abdominal/pelvic region, which feels better with heat or when lying down. My bowel movements have changed post-surgery, becoming more frequent without a change in appearance. I worry that something was missed. What could be causing this discomfort, and should I be concerned about the lymph nodes and cyst?
