I.E: The smell and the texture?

Thank you!

Remember that you asked for the description..................usually brown or normal color, diarrhea with some solid shreds, strong odor, different than just regular poop smell, or pseudomonas smell. Only verification can come from the lab that it exists, diagnosis cannot be made on looks or odor alone. ?

Once you smell it won't forget it though. LOL!!!

Loose, has "barnyard" smell. Common after antibiotic therapy. Often causes nosocomial diarrhea.

You have to spray deodorizer in the hallway, it is so foul...

I suddenly have to use the bathroom...

Usually loose, mucous-y (think gelatin), unforgettable foul odor, sometimes bloody streaks.

When you're sending a spec off for c-diff toxin, you have to send liquid/mucous-y stool.

It's diarrhea, often mucus-like, almost like feces in aspic, in texture that has the smell of sour, diseased tissue (like you get when someone has a nasty decubitus). It can be green or brown. Patients with C-Diff usually have this diarrhea running out of them many times a day. Sometimes it's connected with stomach cramps.

Probably was related, although I don't think that was C-diff in your case.
