Yellow Loose Stool

Yellow Loose Stool

I am a 33 year old female who has a history of Pancreatitis. I have had about 6 severe ( hospitalized for weeks) episodes since I was 18 years old which was puzzling to doctors until my last episode at 28. Prior to my last episode I had multiple ERCP's and CAT scans to figure out why I was getting Pancreatitis. I am not a drinker nor did I have gallbladder stones.  What was finally figured out was that I had was a very narrow duct and sludge from my liver was getting caught in it.  I had the duct dilated and for the past 5 years have not had pancreas pain sever enough to go to the hospital. However, I am having increasing bouts of yellow loose stools with undigested food present.  I had my gallbladder out to be on the safe side because they weren't sure why I wasn't getting better during my last episode. I had an open cholecystectomy because there were to many adhesion for it to be done laparoscopicly   My question is...could my loose yellow stool be related to my pancreas.
