IBS

by rasticle, Jan 24, 2007 12:00AM
Is it normal with IBS to have yellow on the toilet paper, but not yellow stool?  I have been to a GI doc and had every test for my liver, including a biopsy, all were normal.  I have had one of those occult blood tests for my stool as well, it was negative.  I'm probably worrying for no reason, but I just wanted to see if anyone might possibly know something about it.

THanks!

I have had IBS with constipation for 3 years. I have had yellow mucus when I wipe even though my stool is not yellow. When I asked my docter, she just told me that was part of my IBS. That was my case, hope it gets better for you.

Thanks for the input.  It comes and goes for me.  My IBS can be really irritating at times.  Sometimes I worry about it being something worse than it really is, but I guess thats just natural.

i am a ibs patient, and I think is that when it is yellow, it might because it's bile. I get like that sometimes too, but I don't have my gallbladder anymore so i don't have a gallbladder that stores the bile, so everything goes straigh down. So I suggest that it's bile.
