Brief Answer:
One instance has no significance

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I would not be worried if you have blue mold on the stool. What need to know is the smell, size, shape and not just the blue mold on normal color stool. If it recurs I would get a stool microscopy along with routine physical done.

Let me know if you have further concerns.
