You may want to see a gastroinoligist. It may be a fatty liver, the pale fecal gives it away. I am working with mine to get my triglycerides down. It is very important you see one as soon as possible. With diabetes, we are more prone to heart attack and stroke, not to mention a host of other unpleasant things. The good news is you want to find out, it could save your life. Not meaning to worry you, but better to be safe then sorry. There is only one you, and you are so worth knowing!

i had this problem many years ago after eating a Pizza i could not run or walk fast without getting bad pain in left side gut under ribs i had this problem for several years until one day while working with cattle in a stockyard a cow chased me (now this is true ok) i got this amazing burst of speed and climbed the stockyard rails to get away from this cranky old cow, the pain in gut was bad, i suddenly passed quite a lot of wind, after several minutes of wind passing out my body the pain went away, i then relished that the dam pain i had been suffering for several years was gas caught up higher in my gut.

Sounds like gallstones, your stool is pale yellow because
bile flow is restricted.  You have two choices, either to do the liver and gallbladder cleanse, or have the gallbladder removed.
Fatty foods, sweet foods, cheeses etc.. will bring on an attack.
Gallstones may show on an ultrasound/scan, worth having.
Could also be liver related, but sounds like gallstones, which I suffer from,
best wishes

I had something similar and ignore it and ended up in the hospital.
My husband said, the Doctor told him to start preparing for me.
I was in the hospital for two weeks did not eat, or walk down the hall.  I had a pixie line 8 bags on a pole running into my chest.  I was in do much pain. My sister came to visit me and she said, she had to go get the nurse I had turned purple.  
It's nothing to play with. You have a lot of the same symptoms as I did. See a doctor, don't wait!
God bless you hon.
Let me know what the doctor said.
