Having Thin Stools. Feel Dizzy And Nausea. See Undigested Food In Stools. What Should I Do?
i have had thin stools for about 3 months.... sometimes the stools are chalky looking.... yellow/light brown or green/light brown..... two weeks ago i had a dizzy spell and became nauseated it lasted for a good 45 mins. i have had stools samples done and the came back negative.... i am seeing undigested food in my stool... there is no blood present. what should i do next?
Thin stools usually indicate some large intestine narrowing. Such narrowing can be caused by colon cancer. Nausea can be also colon cancer symptom due to partial bowels obstruction. Dizziness can be caused by low hemoglobin level, dehydration. Undigested food parts are usually due to accelerated bowels movements or pancreas insufficiency.
You definitely should have blood work, pancreas tests and colonoscopy as a next step.
Hope this will help. Regards.

Hello! Thank you for the query. Thin stools usually indicate some large intestine narrowing. Such narrowing can be caused by colon cancer. Nausea can be also colon cancer symptom due to partial bowels obstruction. Dizziness can be caused by low hemoglobin level, dehydration.
