Nice: Stool colour

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
I know, minging subject but thought I'd ask.

For the last week when I been goin to the loo my stools have been like yellow!! :shocking:. I went to see my GP today and because I still have a fatty liver the first thing he wanted to do was take another liver function test.

It's kinda strange because it's a sudden on set and I have not changed my diet, although I have been taking Iron tablets but that would of made the stools dark?

I know the colour can be many things, and I do not have any type of symptoms and I'm not a yellow colour at all and urine is ver much light through out the day apart from in the morning. Must say though I have been feeling a little sick of late so it maybe some kind of bacteria infection.

Anyone had any experiance of funny stool colours.

    sorry i can't really help but why are they called stools?

    is it 'cause we sit on them? (in a roundabout way!).

    Seems like my liver function test have come back as normal at last, they were abnormal for over a year. Still gotta get another LFT done when I go see the consultant up the hosie next month, hopefully they stay down.

    bread, rice, potatoes, pasta and similar.. all make your poo go yellow. Been eating a lot of those lately? Also, excess carb intake can make you feel sick. and all of the above food are carbs.
