Green Stool

[George]

For about a week, my stool has become more green. Now it's solid green color (forest green). Could it be a reaction to imipramine and carisoprodol that I take for fibremyalgia? I do not feel badly or sick. Thanks!

Ummm..I have had green stool for almost 2 days. The color is crayola green. I ate nothing out of the ordinary, and no NEW medications...I have no pain, troubly passing stool, etc. what could my problem be?

George -
Consider if you have made any changes in your diet, or added any dietary supplements.  I can only speak from my own experiences, but I have had occasional green stool also.  I know for a fact that an increase in iron, whether it be in the form of a supplement, or diet, can cause stool to become green.  Also, I had an experience recently where I was eating a lot of cashews, & my stool took on a greenish appearance.  Also, some multivitamins can cause this as well.  Unfortunately, I cannot speak to the possiblity of your medications causing this, but wanted to provide some food for thought - pardon the pun.  Good luck!

Thanks for the help! It may also be the sunflower seeds I have eaten. The cashew response may be a link? Will stay off the seeds for a couple weeks and see what happens. Thanks again!

Help, I am a 28 year old female who has been having green stools for about 2 weeks now also....neon green and is getting worse. Ive also noticed severe weight gain in my stomach...I look about 8 months pregnant, but all test showed negative. I'm tired all the time also...Ive gained 20 pounds and still gaining and I havent changed my diet or anything. I'm really worried that something could be really wrong, but I dont have any medical insurance, and no one will see me. Can anyone tell me what could be wrong and if I do need medical help?

[Kay]

I too have been having green stools all of a sudden.  I have had them for a week and have no changes in my diet or medications.  What could this possibly mean?

[Ashley]

I have also had green stool for the past two weeks or so. I haven't changed my diet much.  Just eating the same old junk (i am in college) as usual.

i have never had green stools.....but if i did i can imagine how you all feel.......i would think that it is coming from somewhere in your body rather than what you are eating if it is lasting so long.....for the young lady with no health insurance....seek out a catholic hospital or public hospital for evaluation.....they will help you out regardless of your lack of insurance.......if it was me, i would go in and have blood work done at a minimum

[Kathy Davis]

I have this off and on.  The doctor told me that it was from the over production of bile.

[jennifer]

My stool is green as well, I have not eaten anything unusual or taken new medications.  I do not feel badly sick but have had a cold for about a week and have had lower back pain on my right side.

Hopefully we're not dying!

My 8 year old daughter has had green stools for 3 days and I thought it was something she ate but I have been watching what she eats and it is the same as always.  SHould I be concerned?

[Michelle Ainsworth]

My childs stool is bright green.  Could this be caused by something she ate.  Could it be an iron deficiency.  Please advise what would cause this.

[SSS]

Too much grape koolaid can cause green stool.  Sounds silly but check it out.

[sueblue]

stool is green ane full of green mucous what is it?

[brian]

I have green turds? Is this a problem. It looks like there is some kind of moss attached.

[FRAN]

my son has green stools for about a week

[michele]

Green stool may also be caused from bile being secreted from the liver.  This can cause nausea but is not serious.

[Maria Avery]

Today for the first time in my life I had a very kelly green stool. Also I have had bloating and cramping, esp. on my right side wrappping arounf to my back. Do you know what some of the possible causes of this might be?
Thank you for answering this. It's Sunday night and I am a bit concerned.

[Larry]

I'm interested in finding the answers to this.  I'm having the same problem.
