Could Yellow Coloured Stools Be A Matter Of Concern?
Sometimes my stool is a lighter color light brown to yellow. But then sometimes it is regular brown. I have seen my doctor and he ordered some blood work to check liver function and he said it was normal. He also said that because I have no other symptoms of pancreatic cancer or liver disorders, he says there is no reason for concern.. But I am a very stressful person with some health anxiety issues and now I focus on my poop color all the time. Should I worry if it is sometimes lighter brown or yellow?

Thanks for your query..
firstly you should not worry about the color of your poop because you have it is higly variable as per your intake. Also you have already done LFTs, which is normal.,but for safer side you should also get you stool test done for more satisfaction.
have a nice day
