4 months and Doctors have no answer. Possible color of meds, ibs, bile not able to add brown pigment due to post gallbladder surgery. Pancreatitis was ruled out.

Try a food diary or The Low Fodmap diet to identify what foods may not be digesting properly and are moving through you too fast. When you are are worrying, this can cause loose stools or diarrhoea and when this happens, the bile doesn't get a chance to turn your stools brown. This is very common with IBS. Try to relax.
