Problem is my bowel

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hi I don't know if his is ibs but my feces come out like this like a fudge like paste it takes 30 seconds to come out as far as im aware there's no blood but it's what I can decide as a mud like paste pile my doctor keeps saying there's nothing wrong but a poo should be a solid shape not a thick pastey sludge

    how long has it been like that. often its to do with what you eat

    do you have other symptoms, constipation, frequent stools

    google bristol stool chart

    above all dont worry

    My stools are all over the place and 3/4 of the time like you describe, do not worry about it. You may have a touch of IBS, or even diverticulitus. If that is the only thing wrong and the doctors not worried then unless you have any other symptoms I would not worry. If you get stomach cramps or anything else then go back for an assessment.

    I am not qualified and can only go by my own experiences.

      Sure you have nothing to worry about. As said anything else then ring GP.

    It could be that you are drinking lot's of water , and that can soften the stools , or are you taking any laxatives , because they will have the same effect.

    If you are not bleeding , do not worry too much , or speak to another Dr. for re-assurance , and get on with your life.

    I don't really drink that much doe probley 5 or six drinks a day I mainly drink max. Mainly fruit juices. I eat cerals and oat bars so it ain't a issue with firbre at all. It just like sludge I'm gonna check next time for small bits of blood but it ain't solid no more I don't know what could be causeing it although I have a eating disorder and the only fruit and vegitable I eat is oranges

    Seems like you could be having to much fibre in you diet, I would cut back on the fruit juice, I was told no more than 100ml twice a day, also

    1 Orange a day or try kiwi. Oats are very high in fibre, I cannot tolerate

    Them.

    I am struggling with ibs, and have cut out lots of foods, I now have to eat more wheat to get celiac blood test done.

    Hope you get sorted out, it takes time to try to find the problem.

    Today I went it was complete dieoria just like a thick muddy puddle could not see no blood but it was a bit darker today I don't know if it was because it was a complete puddle of mud this time or if it's a bowel problem

    i think you should see a doc asap, and ask to get your poo checked in the lab, thats not normal. have you done a food diary or cut out any foods, i have been to a dietican, who i thought wasnt much good. if anything you you want to ask please do, i have had ibs for about 15 years and been through loads.

    You certainly seem to need some help with your diet, if i ate all those things i would never be out of the toilet. My diet is not great , but i mainly drink cold and hot water, very occasionaly alcohol, just upsets my gut. i always have at least 3 veg per day, carrot,broccli( 1 peice) courgette, fruit everday kiwi, tangerine or peach, i have boiled rice, pasta, beansprouts, with chicken, turkey, lamb, lots of different fish. pineapple is good for inflammation and a good enzyme for your stomach. I have just started to eat bread, to get tested for gluten. i do not eat soya dairy or egg, hope one day to get them back into my diet.

    I take it you have had no tests done to look into your bowel  or stomach

    Hi Chris just thinking about all the things you eat there is s lot of wheat in your diet?

    If you have a problem with wheat you certainly would have a lot of dioreha and probably would loose weight

      No weight loss staying on my weight at the moment I do do a lot of walking all I'm worried that it's cancer
