I have been having odd smelling, light
colored stools off and on for the last six
weeks that have a chemical odor (that I
can only describe as smelling like
mothballs). I've had numerous tests
(abdominal cat scan, ultrasound, and
hida), radiologic and blood tests all of
which are normal. I've recently developed
itching all over with no rash. I am not
overweight. My appetite has diminished
lately and I have lost maybe 3-4 pounds in
the last month. I think I must be crazy
since all of my medical tests have been
normal, but how do I imagine this type of
problem with my stools?
Anyone ever heard of or had a similar
problem?
Thanks,
ddl

Stomach problems Posted: 07-05-08 10:58am
I know the feeling i have been having
trouble out of my stomach for over ten
years and i haven't found out what is
wrong with me yet. I have the fishy
smelling stool, that is sometimes very
loose and shapeless. I have had pretty
much every test that i can think of but
they turn out to be normal, but i don't
feel normal. I was starting to think that
maybe it was in my head, but after coming
to this site i see that i am not alone. If
you can find out what's wrong with you
please keep in touch.
