What Do White Particles In Stool Indicate?
Had testicular cancer in Feb. 2013, one removed, 2 weeks of radiation at Dana Farber. 8/14 severe diarrhea that lasted 6 weeks, symptoms went away for a week then had a colonoscopy, one polyp removed, no colitis. One week later diarrhea returned 4 weeks, having an endoscopy on thurs. 11/13. No formed/smooth round stool. All yellowish /brown water with WHITE dots? What are these white dots? I m a prisoner in my own home (have to be near a bathroom), already tried the no lactose and no celiac route, no change.Going to the bathroom 7 times a day. Sorry to have taken up your time, no $$$$

HI
Well come to HCM
Your main concern would be your appearance of stool, what your seeing white particle, this is nothing to do with previous history of malignant disease, if the diarrhea does not cause any symptoms like cramps, nausea,, fever then this is nothing to worry wait for some time it would be fine if this does not then you need to get done the stool examination, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
