green bloody stool

Today and yesterday I noticed that when I went number two my stool was green, like grass colored green. Has anyone else experienced this and what does it mean?

Had anything with a lot of food colouring? (kool-aid, fruity pebbles, etc) All of this can change stool colour.

and now as in last 2 yrs I have been getting funky green stool and its really bad and I googled everything and it says I could have anything from stomach ucler to cancer! I am really scared cuz it means i have blood in my stool and I am only 23yrs old...I made an appointment with the doctor for next week but i just feel like she wont do anything and ill be disappointed with another one yet again!...i cant be spending money everytime but having melena is not a smal issue!

i started to have have really bad abdominal pains yesterday evenning, while at work, they got worst later on, i also had to go to the restroom and i had solt stool tht was bright green, after eating sum soup i so felt sick, so about 1hr after eatin ihad to puke, and the cramping contiued..i closed up and went home, when to bed and i woke up to day my stomache started cramping agian, and about 5mins ago i had another green stool...

The stool can become green on taking food rich in green leafy vegetables. If this is not the cause, then the stool is passing out of the large intestine at a very rapid rate so the bile does not break down. This can happen if you have malabsoroption syndromes. A viral infection can change the stool color to dark bottle green color. Do discuss this with your doctor and get yourself examined. Hope this helps. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage.

But lately for the past week or been pooping green, and Its dark green color, could this mean labor is starting soon? Also loosing bits and peices of my mucus plug here and there, abd having lower dull back pain all day long and lots of "lightening crotch" im so miserable!! Please help ladies!

I am 33 weeks and around the same time I had green stool. It's actually perfectly normal and means you must be eating more iron or salad or greens. Usually green stool is a good sign. But you can check with you doctor if you're concerned. I had it though and it went away about a week later.

I am in my early fifties and for the first time ever I have noticed that my stool has been a forest green for the past week. I take no medications, have a balanced diet, probably at least a 50/50 ratio poultry/fish to veggies and am post menaposal. I feel fine, no discomfort or abdominal pain.

If that green color was from bile, you'd probably feel some anal burning during bm.

Second we usually think of healthy stool being brown but stool is actually green before its brown due to bile being in the small intestine and as the green stool passes thru the large intestine over time it turns Brown. So If your stool was green ir could mean that it just passed thru the intestine too quickly for it to turn Brown. Its happend to me many many times. Hope that answers your question!

Why is my stool green? I will be 50 years old shortly. I am on no medications and have no health problems that I am aware of. Periodically, (like once last year & then a couple of times this month) my stool is grass green, usual normal consistency, & stays that way for a few days. What would cause this?

s and had green stool for about a week, ya a hole week of green stools, with mild cramping. They should put a warning sign upin front saying "PURPLE CHIPS WILL GIVE YOU GREEN POOP" This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/234200'>Green stool</a>.

Usually green stool is an indication that you are getting a lot of chlorofyl in your system from green vegetables, and shouldn't be a concern. But, (and pardon my being so graphic) does your stool float, too? This is a sign of giardia, which you can pick up from your dog, cat, handling shoes that were in a watery area outside, just about anywhere. If this persists, and/or if the stool is green and floats, you will need to see a doctor for a diagnosis and a pill that will knock it out.

the more you have in you, the more your body can push out whatever its not liking. the most common causes of green stool are food coloring and excess fiber, but it does depend on what kind of green youre talking about. if its very slimy and not like normal diarrhea, its most likey bile, stomach acids, etc. if its an acceptable consistency, looks like youd expect it to, and just tinted, its most likely fiber or food colorings.

green stool is usually an indication of an infection somewhere. Your body is trying to fight it off. Depending on which infection, you may feel fine, but you should be checked as it could be something underlying that should be addressed.
