They are the color of my feces on the outside and white and spongy or cottage cheesy looking on the inside. since my gallbladder taken out. I'm also experiencing explosive diarrhea, bloody stools, ect.. I'm taking extended metformin for type 2 diabetic. Please help!

Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood your concerns. After seeing your symptoms it is clear that you are having a chronic infection. I suggest you to have an ultrasound abdomen done to rule out organic causes. You need to drink plenty of water and be hydrated. You need to get treated with antibiotics. Consult a gastroenterologist for this for sure. Dont make any late in such type of issues. Thank you.
