Flat black specks in bowel movement

Flat black specks in bowel movement

I was reading a closed post where someone said their doctor said it was normal and not to worry.  Recently i have tons and tons of flat black specks in my bowel, yet nothing else is wrong with it or my body.  I was wondering what the doctor might have said was the problem.  Was it non-digested food?

hi shanbr.
i had the same problem and asked my doc about it. she didn't think it was anything to worry about. just to figure it out for myself, i began tracking the issue and noticed that the black specks happen when i'm taking my citrucel (insoluble fiber dietary aid; i take the tablet form). it goes away when i stop my citrucel.  
by the way, this is not to diss the citrucel; it does its job quite well. the specks are pretty weird, tho.
hope this helps
reg.

research Morgellons black specks. I have it. started in stool. Keep it at bay before it gets worse. It is systemic. Try some remedies. No cure yet, not considered real. people pegged as delusional just like first aides patients were treated. It is real.  Had I known the symptoms I might have avoided the horrific skin affliction. Ther is a gastro doctor studying this and doing colonoscopy studies. dont know name but look for him.
