    Floating stool (gross topic)

    So lately my stool only floats. I can't remember if it's always done this, but I think not.

    Apparently this is a bad sign. If you google it a lot of people say it's a sign you're not absorbing fats, and that there could be something wrong with your pancreas. Also it could be celiac or something.

    I can't stop thinking about it.

    Understand your concern... think I have read on google about it as well...empathetic to your worries as well. What might help you is to eat a high fiber diet... look for things high in fiber.. if you are not already start slow then increase... I eat a high fiber diet because I lead a fairly sedentary lifestyle working at the computer... it really helps clear all of that up...
    Best to you
