Brief Answer: Detailed answer given below Detailed Answer: Hi, Thanks for providing the additional information. The white thing you see in your stool may not indicate candida. It is probably excess mucus. I would advice you to undergo colonoscopy for evaluation. For the feeling of fullness , you may need an upper GI endoscopy. Further treatment is planned based on these scopy findings. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr.Ratnakar Kini
