Interesting Movements


Lister

Recommended Posts

Lister Rising Star

I have been healing really well and i have moved from small movements to way more regular movements but i am starting to get conserd as they seem to be coated with a white mucuse like substance that floats around the stools and on the stools like bactera or something. I had really bad green mucuse stools for about half a month until i was gluten free for about half a week then they starting looking normal but for the past 2 days alot of this white stuff is starting to show up is this normal? or should my doctor be warned?

I don't know if it's normal, but I do know I had some really weird stools. For instance the three days my stool smelled, NOT like poop, but like toasted sesame seed bagles, just when the seeds begin to burn. I just assume that any weird stuff with my stool is normal.

But that being said, maybe you should consult with your doc just in case...

Sorry I couldn't be more help!

That is strange because mine smelled the same way for a while. I also noticed that they smell like food (like it wasn't digested all the way) when I eat somethin with gluten. Very strange.

when i was eating apple sauce alot it really smelled like it lol. but i guess as a update on the stooledge, they have changed again but now to a really really dark color like not a normal shade really dark dark brown. i think this may be healthy? i dont know i have always been overweight until now and used to eat burger king 3 meals a day because it was free, so i dont really know what a real movement should look like?

If it's really dark you might want to get an occult blood stool test done to make sure you're not bleeding internally...

i had one done about a week ago when i was bleeding but no blood showed up even though it was visible

If they are just dark brown and not black and tarry, then you should be ok. Actually brown is a good color. I think for me and my son that we had light colored stools and undigested food when we were eating gluten. This still happens when severely gluttened.

they have always been slightly tarry no matter what the color and it comes with a wierd smell like a horse stall is the only thing i can think of yes i know thats gross

Lister Rising Star

Silly question, but have you been drinking gatorade or kool-aid that's blue or green or purple? I've had that happen where it'd be totally green, or even blue! The blue was after way too much blue fratboy punch and jello...

Other than that, it could be that your system is working too fast, and the bile (which is green) is moving through really quickly.

i only drink lemon-lime gatorade for that exact reason even though i guess i did have a blue one but that was like 2 days ago. What can i do to make it not pass so fast? is this a bad thing or is it ok? sorry im just really conserd about my health as i can not talk to my doctor until monday since he is at a confrence and things seem to be getting worse while he is gone

You gots ta love a site that can talk about poop frankly. I am still having weirdness after a year of gluten-free. Tell your doctor. I'm starting to tell mine, but it takes time to build up that kind of, shall I say, intimacy?

All the best, Lister.

      Wishing you lots of luck--let us know how it turns out!

      Thank you both for your input! trents: yes I completely agree, it's simple anatomy. The walk-in doctor I saw even said to me, "you cannot get exposure or get sick if it only got in your respiratory system" to which I replied, "If I inhaled it, it's in the mucous I swallow that leads to my gut." I was honestly baffled I had to explain that to her. Thanks for your comments! Scott Adams: Thanks for your advice, yes I agree I think that's ultimately what I have to do especially while times are getting tougher in this current economy! Hopefully I find something new and equitable or better, in a quick manner! Please send prayers and best wishes for me to find a new job quickly, I wore the N95 masks today and it seems like I'm gonna be okay but I literally have to hazmat wash my clothes and myself when I get home. I think my current exposure will have time to recover while I'm wearing the masks at work. Thank you all again!

      Parent-to-parent, I hear your exhaustion and worry loud and clear – what you’re describing goes far beyond typical toddler troubles. Your daughter’s screaming night pain, terrible bloating, stalled growth, and constant infections are textbook red flags for celiac disease or another serious gluten-related condition. While her blood test came back negative, there are critical reasons not to rule it out yet. First, celiac tests are notoriously unreliable in kids under 3 – their tiny immune systems often don’t produce enough antibodies to register on standard blood work, especially if she wasn’t eating consistent gluten beforehand (which you mentioned was a struggle). Her iron deficiency alone is a glaring clue, as it’s one of the most common signs of undiagnosed celiac in little ones. The fact that she’s already dairy/soy-free yet still suffering suggests something bigger is at play. It could still be celiac (a pediatric GI should consider an endoscopy with biopsies, the gold standard for diagnosis), or possibly non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) – which doesn’t show up on tests but can cause identical agony. Her recurring mouth ulcers and infections also hint at the immune dysfunction seen in celiac. Until you see the specialist, I’d quietly start a gluten-free trial (after documenting her current symptoms carefully with photos/videos of the bloating and pain episodes). If you see improvement in 3-4 weeks, that’s powerful evidence to bring to the doctors. You’re not being dramatic – you’re being the exact advocate your daughter needs. If the pediatrician brushes you off, look them in the eye and say: “What else could explain ALL these symptoms together? If it’s not celiac, what’s our next step to stop her suffering?” Keep pushing – moms’ instincts are rarely wrong about this stuff. For now, focus on small wins: snap daily pics of her belly to show the distension, ask for a fecal calprotectin test (checks gut inflammation), and know this internet stranger is rooting for you both. She’s lucky to have you fighting for her.

      Can you post what blood tests were done specifically for celiac disease, the results and reference ranges if available? If her gluten intake was reduced prior to the blood draw it certainly could result in false negatives on some tests. There is also the possibility that she has NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
