The colour, the variation, the size... 💩 is a sensitive topic but we all do it...

So it’s been 2 weeks out of my surgery and
finally getting to have more firmer poops.

The problem is before they were very runny, and still are on the mushy side, but now they are more pale in colour almost to the point of yellowy clay like colour.

I have an appointment to see the dr covering for my dr and she is quite new out of college. I don’t think that she takes what I say quite seriously.

For example 2 weeks ago I told her that the nurse at the hospital said my heart was a bit tacky aka tachycardia. It continued on when I got home, and every once in a while it flutters.

I know it sounds like a panic attack but I’m quite sure mine isn’t... but anyways back to my poop...

So I know I know... don’t google your symptoms but I already know I have a gallstone issue but I haven’t been having any pain. I just did bloodwork so I imagine that if there is a problem it will come up on there...

Anyone know any remedies that have been working for you to firm up your 💩?

I needed Probiotics to get solid poops. They gave me antibiotics by IV in the hospital and I always need probiotics afterward.

My Dr said yellow, clay color is normal. He also said consistency varies among people. When I eat kale it turns really green. If I eat something a little fatty it appears greasy/oily.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
