My doctor just called and stated that I had stool in my colon, some fibroids, and fluid in my pelvic area, but offered no opinions. If I am off gluten what can I do to get my bowels moving? A lot of fibrous veggies bother me.

I don't know what to do.

As far as fiber there are fiber products on the market. I don't know which ones are gluten-free, so check and see. Water helps, too. Hopefully you'll be able to eat more veggies soon.

It's normal to have stool in your colon. That's where it accumulates until you are ready to go to the bathroom. Did he say it was an unusual amount of stool? Uterine fibroids? Get that sent to the OB/GYN to see if they need to be taken care of.

You need to speak up and ask these doctors what they mean and what to do next. They are paid to help you. You are the consumer. Think of it like that.

Did you by chance mean to say you have blood in your stool?

She didn't say. Through all of this, I have come realize just how awful doctors are.

When my CT scan showed stool in my intestines and colon The doc was referring to excess stool hiding in small pockets on the wall of my intestines and colon.

Getting clarification from your doc can be next to imposable ( I know :ph34r: ) but maybe a talk with him may help ( I can hope cant I :P )

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.
