I have diabetics, on insulin,   and also have a problem controling my urine.  So I wear pads all the time.   Now for the last several months, My Urine from the pads have the most unusual smell.     Just wondering if this is from diabetics or what.

It could be from the diabetes or the medications you are on.  or a combo of both or some underlying problem
have you talked to you doctor about this.

Hi Barb ... have you eaten any asparagus ?  This will make one's urine smell of cats pee ! Well only in about 10 % of the population ... I'm one of them.

Very high sugar levels can give the urine a sweet, flowery odor.

thanks,   that is what I was concerned about.    And now I am really going to check my sugar and the odor.    
 
thanks again    and I will discuss with my doc.    i also thought it might have been some meds i am on, but then, the sugar makes sense to me

You probably should check your ketones, that's the flowery sweet smell that comes from very high blood sugar.  I hope you're feeling better now.
