Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have noticed dark oily spots floating around in the toilet after a what seemed to be otherwise a normal looking stool. I have recently changed my diet quite dramatically in order to fight of candidiasis. I have gone from a normal diet to essentially a vegetarian diet that is alkaline.
Possible oil spots in stools in your case are in relation with altered gut flora mechanics from dietary changes. Still a stool microscopy is mandatory for evaluation in details.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
