Grissle Like Stuff During Bowel Movement. History Of Diverticulitis. Reason?

I had a bowel movement and it had white grissle looking stuff on it, this is the first time I have ever noticed anything like this, and it has me very worried. Have you ever heard of any thing like this ? I have had diverticulitis for about three years that I know of but have never seen any thing like this. Any ideas because I am freeking out about this should I take it to my doctor .

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hi,

Please stay calm. You can send your stool to the lab to examine for ova/parasites, to do the coproculture and culture for candida.

I'd suggest to go and see a gastroenterologist to check the status of diverticulitis.

Thank you.
