Neon Green Poo (HELP)

My boyfriend, for the past month or so, has had BRIGHT, like highlighter bright green poo. And he thought it was something to do with too much iron in his blood, I dont remember what it is called, but then I got it it!
And now my poo is bright green!

Could this be a parasite?

Because its most definatley not anything weve eaten, ebacsue he has had it for a very long time, and I didnt until recenlty.

If you could help me that would be grand!

I am pretty positive its nothing we are drinking or eating, because we eat all the same foods, and I just started having it..

Does anyone know the name of the disease you can get from cats that have diarreah? My friend said that could be it because we have two cats, and one has diarreah, and it will make your poo green..

Hi there!
I know you have said it isn't from anything you have been eating, what about drinking?  I used to drink Grape gatorade and my poo was constantly green, sometimes really bright like you described.  I know drinks that are purple or blue in color can make your poo green.  Just thought I would throw it out there.  I drank Grape gatorade for months so my poo was green for months.  If not you both might want to have a stool culture done to see what is going on.  Good luck to the two of you.
