(I'm new here, so I hope you don't mind me joining the conversation...)

All I gotta say is that you're all friggin awesome! (Funny, too)

I think most people would read a page like this and think you're all crazy... I know some people who don't even look after going. I thought I was a bit strange, since I have a flashlight in the bathroom drawer just to make sure I get a good look at it. (I've never told anyone else that, either)

I've been trying to figure things out with my doctor, and all I can think about is "If only I could get someone to look at this crap... 'cause that is NOT NORMAL!" But I think my doc would be rather grossed out if I were to bring in pictures. So I just keep going, and wondering why I keep flushing away all the evidence...

Looking at that Bristol scale, I've had more than 1 type in the same sitting. Complete with mucous, too. But then again, there's always mucous. So I don't know what that's all about...

Has anyone ever shown a pic to someone? I'd imagine to the trained eye, that'd be quite helpful in identifying things, but there just doesn't seem to be anyone to show 'em to.

I don't think you need pictures, I've gotten a good idea of what you're seeing just from your post! :lol:

Weclome to the conversation ... you are supposed to jump right in!

Oh, and Lister, congrats on being normal! :P

Welcome! Yup, things get kinda crazy here sometimes...

But, just to let you know, I too examined my poop with a flashlight, so I would know EXACTLY what to tell my GI. Photographs were too gross, so I had to give him a nice, verbal picture.

It was kind of exciting to see normal poop come back, like seeing a long-lost friend..... :rolleyes:

My husband tells me those exact words all the time ... "You are one sick individual!" And, he's always complained about my family's fascination with poop. Funny that no one else considers they may have a gluten problem with all this bm talk!

You think we are sick, there is a website my brother-in-law told us about called ratemypoo ... it's really sick. Don't see the purpose to it at all!

I'm in mourning for my normal stools... :P:(:)

I was at the point early this year that I was mostly feeling good, and my stools were of the 3 and 4 variety... and now I'm back to a wide variety again, if you know what I mean... Blaah. If i get back to normal, I'm definitely going to celebrate! :D

I have taken pics of Curran's poops in the past and have yet to actually show the pics to anyone. When I felt that 2 months of diarrhea blowouts of 10 to 15 times a day was likely NOT toddlers tummy I decided to get my point across the old fashioned way as describing it to the ped was obviously not working. So I scraped a tablespoon of it out of the diaper (he was 2 years old then) and put it in a plastic bag. Then another plastic bag and another and then into the diaper bag. You could smell me coming and the ped was appalled by it and the smell. Got me the start of testing back then and a our first referral to a GI (unfortunately he was an idiot). The point is that a picture may be worth a thousand words but one tablespoon of the stuff made everyone in the office gag and wish they could open the windows! :lol: Trust me, I have done this a few times now and I always seem to get processed a bit quicker and also it drives home that I am NOT exaggerating about it. ;)

How about this name for the poop pictures... Its a crap shoot?

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
