Fuzzy stool...

[AKatie]

I recently returned from a stint abroad in South America. Upon return, my digestive system is not normal. I poop 2-3 times a day whereas before, I only went every other day. The consistency is not solid, more diarrhea-like and with a fuzzy appearance. It's been over a week now, and I'm starting to wonder if a I caught a bug or if it's something I need to go to the doctor about.

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  I would recommend seeing your doctor about this and talk to him about possibly doing a stool sample.
