What Causes White Spots In Stool?

Hello. I have cervical cancer and a recent ultrasound showed a spot on my liver. I have been feeling unwell for over a year now... fatigue, headaches, sore low back radiating to shoulder blades that comes and goes, abdominal distention frequently, abdominal pain, periods are irregular with clotting and excessive belching. Yesterday was a very bad phase of depression/sadness and today white spots in my stool. I am 34 years old with hypertension and my brother died at 35 of heart failure. I have had a gut feeling for a long time something is seriously wrong any seems to be that my Doctor doesn t ever believe me. Any information would be helpful and appreciated. Thank You

Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

First stress and depression has to be avoided as they can aggravate your hypertension...
You can consult psychiatrist for counselling session...
Excess bloating is because of simple functional bowel disease by stress...

Other factors may lead bloating that has to be avoided.....like....
-smoking
-more carbonated drink
-eating eagerly and fast
-excess fatty food etc....

You can take more fruits ....
Avocados rich in fiber so very useful in your case ...
Red beetroots rich in pottasium , fiber and magnesium so good to take....

Get your stool examined for parasitic eggs.
If needed ornidazole can taken for 5 days.
Low salt diet and regular exercise for hypertension....

If still condition worsen USG or colonoscopy needed.

Take care.
