Need help on this, I’ve been having yellow stools (sometimes floating) these few months. It mostly happens after I ate avocado. (The picture i upload is a picture i found it online, my stool looks exactly the same as the picture) image

I normally poop twice to 3 times daily, the stool looks completely normal in the morning, but right after I ate avocado, a yellow stool will appear in the afternoon.

Ive visit my GP and did several checkups, all came back normal.

Stool routine: Normal

Stool fat globules: Negative

CA19-9 and CEA: All normal with low numbers

Liver function: Normal

Pancreas Amylase and Lipase: Normal

Whole abodominal ultrasound: hmultiple small gallbladder polyps, pancreas and liver normal.

I’ve done the stool fat globules test twice both comes out normal, but the stool I got tested was my first stool in the morning. Should I go test it once after I eat avocado? I’m so lost now and so anxious about the pancreatic problems. Please help.
