For over a year now I have been finding a fatty substance in my stools. Its opaqur to off white and is sticky nas soft almost like a gelatin.
I take a lot of opiate pain meds and have very solid stools that sometimes require digital assistance to break it up otherwise its too big to pass. When i pull my finger out I get about 1/2 teaspoon and its also on the surface of the stool itself. I take biscodyl and a senna softener. I only take the laxative when feeling blacked up. What might this be? I have no symptoms at all and am regular having at least 1 BM in the AM and at times a 2nd later

Hi:
It sounds like your symptoms may very well be related to your meds. However, it would be really important to confirm this with your doctor. Did you see any of these symptoms on the med packaging material? Do you have the symptoms now, since your post? If so, what did your doctor say about it? I hope you are reporting all of your symptoms as they appear. Please let me know what you found out. I am hoping that your symptoms are not serious and that you are doing ok. Please let me know.

Can anybody tell me anything about clay colored stools? Causes, dangers and treatment options?
