Okay so I know talking about bowel movements can be awkward for some but I'm looking for some advice. I've got myself all worked up and scared over pancreatic cancer or malabsorption problems. Yes, Internet searching filled my head with terrifying information. I'm mad I did this to myself again :(
Anyways.. I've been for the last month.. Since my last period to be exact.. Have been having floating stools. They look normal , are of normal color and I guess consistency but they float instead of sinking. I don't feel any pain or have a hard time going and the whole experience is normal.. The stool just floats /: I mean sometimes it has sunk and sometimes half sinks and half floats but I feel like more than usual this past month they've floated. So now I'm anxious everytime I go to see if they float or not. I'm now scared thinking I have pancreatic cancer or malabsorption problems. Ugh. And before this all started I was particularly anxious and had an anxiety attack and was paranoid about my heart. Could anxiety cause this? I know I should go to the doctor but I was hoping for insight or anyone else who experienced this and it turned out okay and not a death sentence. Please anyone ? I hope I didn't put all my bathroom business out there for nothing :doh::weep::lac: also age might not be relevant to all this but I'm 21.
