Guest guest Posted March 7, 2002 Report Share Posted March 7, 2002 <<<<<<<< the " green stone " that I was having analyzed, of course, came back as FECAL MATTER. I looked at the doctor and asked " What was it made of? Bile? Cholesterol? " and he just said " FECAL MATTER " . I asked then why is it dark-emerald shiny green inside and almost like a hard jello? No normal fecal matter I know looks like that. Isn't it bile? He said " Well, bile IS fecal matter " . I was ready to punch him! BUT, I just let it rest and knew from that point on I had to handle this myself. Of course, he wrote everything off as being IBS and/or stress, Blah, blah, blah....>>>>>> Dave; This certainly isn't a surprising result of the laboratory report, that's just what mine said. However, some do get to hear that there was a waxy substance and bile, that would have been a successful report. This is just one of those really hard things to get pined down in a report. It really is quite obvious that it is fecal matter, after all, it is made up of all the same basic substances of fecal matter: bile, cholesterol, and other components making up the bile. The part I have trouble with regarding the doctor(s) is that they often request fecal matter for inspection for various problems someone may be experiencing and in cases such as that there is a much more in-depth report. So, perhaps in the future requests for a report should be to have the stones analyzed as fecal matter with a request as to what it may contain and in what quanities so as to know how one's digestive track is functioning.or to see if there is a parasite contained in the matter....???? IF we can get back a report with the words " waxy substance " we have succeeded in getting the type of report that showes we got out gallstones. http://health.discovery.com/diseasesandcond/encyclopedia/201.html http://members.tripod.com/PorphBook/62.html https://www.acurian.com/patient/registration/login.jsp Dale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
