Update... Still getting yellow balls in stools [with images]
Posted , 212 users are following.
Hello everyone,
If you've seen my previous discussion from last year, you will know I was having problems with undigested food, strands of fibre and these yellow balls in my stool.
After eliminating dairy and going vegan once again, the symptoms cleared up for a bit. However, after a couple months, the strands of fibre and yellow balls have come back!
I'm once again worried about these yellow balls - they're a bit hard to touch, but squidgy and semi-solid in the middle (it's not sweetcorn - the balls are bigger, plus I haven't eaten any in the past week to rule this out anyhow). They appear more so when my stools are harder but can also appear in soft stools.
Is anybody experiencing similar symptoms or does anyone have any ideas about what these could be?
Pictures are below.

I’m currently searching online to figure out what this is? I am producing yellow pill looking balls also. Many are posting that they come out when they poop but mine came out while urinating also. Also saw something about Prestiq and not on that either. Did anyone ever get a clear answer?

Did you ever determine exactly what this was? I have been seeing the exact same thing in my stools and have ruled out undigested food.

Ok so i just googled weird yellow balls in poop thats not corn and here i am lmao. anyways for over a year I've been battling this weird skin infection. Doctors act like im just picking to be picking, ive never had any issues like this until covid. i know u are wondering what this has to do with it, im getting there lol. So for months i have been convinced i have a parasite, for months i have taken antibiotics, ive used the creams they give me. Nothing helped, so i found a discussion about it on here, same symptoms people were having and the only thing that helped was ivermectin and ivermectin cream. So i go to my dr and tell him to just listen and lets give it a shot. soooo guess what, for it to not be a parasite it sure is healing amazingly finally. So after taking the ivermectin ive really been paying attention to my poops. Ive been passing these gross little yellow things that are definitely not corn. I was gross today and fished one out of the toilet, looked kinda like a tiny little yellow cherry tomatoe and even when i squeezed it kinda popped, gross! Im a clean person, i dont travel, work from home and since taking ivermectin the things ive passed in my poop OMG. I dont have a gallbladder, not been sick, been taking antibiotics for months. im convinced its something parasite related

also i have never had skin issues or anything like this until covid. i havent taken the vaccine and have not had covid but for some reason i cant help but think its related. Ivermectin has been one of yhe top medicines prescribed for covid, am i the only one that thinks thats a little freaking weird. never in my life have i heard of it being prescribed for anything other than parasites. Makes me question what covid really is and what they are not telling people

It's diverticulitis caused by small ball shaped pouches in the large intestine. I went to the ER because of terrible pain on the left side of my stomach. They prescribed an antibiotic and within thirty minutes I passed 2 balls. I expect a few more before I finish the medication. This is my second time on this medication. Search diverticulitis balls and you will see what you described. When these balls get infected I have cramps that last a week or more non stop. I can barely sleep.

hello, not sure if you are still having this issue. for me, i just discovered that it is undigested medication shell. I had the same thing on a few occasions and was stumped! I just did a little bit more research and discovered these are called ghost tablets.

it very well could be that, but it's better to be safe than sorry. everyone's body is different & doctors do say "it could be multiple things causing these symptoms." so for you it could be ghost tablets, but for my mom it was a bacterial infection that was causing the blobs in her stool. & for another on this thread is was colon cancer. you should go to the doctor to be positive all it is is those ghost tablets!

im assuming this could be possible for claritine D. i took one sunday and found one in my stool. It had been a while before I had taken another one before Sunday and I haven’t seen them in my store in a while until today. so that makes sense.

mine look EXACTLY the same. I've had IBS for over 10 years & I've NEVER had these in my stool up until a couple weeks ago & now they are in every single bowel movement I make. & I've been going a lot more too. I haven't eaten anything different or drank anything different in the past 6 months. haven't changed my diet. so something else is definitely going on. you need to find a new doctor who will test your stool because they know that every person knows their own body best. my doctor is that way. she believes me when I tell her things going on with my body & takes it serious. please find a new doctor!!! I made my appt & will find out soon what's causing these symptoms in my body. I found out my mom experienced this a couple years ago & she had her stool tested & discovered she had some type of bacterial infection that antibiotics cured! she stopped getting the blobs in her stool. everyone's body is different tho! doctors do say that "it could be multiple things causing these symptoms" !!!

I don't have any idea about what ever came about with the person who posted this and honestly they can say whatever they want about what they think or what they were told it is but I'm telling you that you are correct. Parasites.
