As the title suggests, any websites or papers on exactly what an abnormal pale, oily stool would look like?

As my other threads suggest, I'm currently worried about and in the middle of health anxiety over pancreatic cancer (male, 30 years old). I've been having upper and lower abdominal pains (especially under left ribs), reflux and back discomfort.

However, I've just been to the toilet. Just got it to work and felt a very quick serge of sharp wind type pain in lower abdomen (under belly) and had to go to toilet. I sat down, went and two stools just came out with no real pushing (sorry) :blush: I look and they were full big stools, normal looking colour but they smelt (sorry, again) :blush: and very ragged edges, almost like they were rough or something. I tried to google stuff like pancreatic cancer stools etc but nothing shows me a picture of what I should be looking out for. Any help?

Honestly, chances are it's just gas, nothing more.
