I’ve been experiencing yellow bright bowels for the last 2-3 months. Now for the past 2 days they have been bright yellow with mucus. Has anyone else experienced this?

No problem, my appointment is tomorrow 2pm central time in America so hopefully I'll have a answer.

Are you having other symptoms?

I never had IBS, does it randomly just happen? How does it feel? I have had many test and all have come back negative.

I have pain under my left ribcage and only my left side feels tight, it never crosses to the right side. Idk what it is

CT scan, MRI, Xrays, upper endoscopy and many blood test all negative

Have you had a fecal elastase test? It tests pancreatic function. Your pancreas may not be producing enough enzymes

Yep, whenever I eat dairy or wheat. Normally if mine is yellow I've eaten a food I'm intolerant to

Not sure if this will be helpful, but I have had IBS for ever it seems, I take cholestyramine daily and Imodium prn. I get a sudden urgent dash to the loo roughly once a week....it is always a bright yellow. Has happened so often I am hoping it is "normal".

Can you tell me what tests you took to understand?

I often have yellow stool. It seems to be when I have loose stools probably because the food has travelled through my gut quickly. When it travels through slower it goes brown. My stool is always yellow when I am having an IBS- D flare up.

Unfortunately I have no updates, the doctors are puzzled and say I look healthy on paper and cant understand why I hurt.
