Sticky foul smelling feces
I constantly have sticky foul smelling feces. Along with a serious problem with
gas
Bacterial gastroenteritis
Barium enema
Blood gases
Blood gases test
Chagas disease
Culture of gastric tissue biopsy
Feeding tube insertion - gastrostomy
Gas - flatulence
Gastrectomy - series
Gastric cancer
Gastric culture
. Everyone tells me it's diet. I have changed my diet many times, with no changes. I usually have bowel movements everyday if that makes any difference.
I was told that the foul
smell
Smell - impaired
Stools - foul smelling
is a high level of bacteria. My blood tests come back normal.
Anyone have any idea what could cause this?

Willy, go to your doc and ask to have some stool tests done. The foul
smell
Smell - impaired
Stools - foul smelling
could be fat malabsorption or it could be due to skewed bacterial levels. It needs to be checked out and blood tests aren't the way to go.
