I have been going through the same thing. I am on Glumetza also and have been passing these green grape shapes for some time. Your post was very helpful and gave me a sense of relief. Thank you for sharing your story!
Are you on metformin slow release tablets. As we have found out that is what the problem is. Fast release are okay
The answer to this is people taking metformin slow release pills, since my husband changed to the fast release he has had no more problems of passing any of these egg shaped objects.
my daughter has been sick for 3 years lately she has noticed black bean shape substance in her stool (which has been liquid for past 2 years ) Ibs was the best guess by the DR. any insight on what this could be?
Are you taking Metformin for diabetic"s
no metformin she is on some holistic medicines.
interesting, I take Metformin also, But when i fished it out it felt like a gummy bear not a hard pill? idk what to think
I get bloated several hours after eating and have to stick my finger down my throat to vomit to make myself feel better again. The last thing I ate was a piece of bread with peanut butter on it and 12 hours later I am throwing up like 3 of these 3/4 inch oval white bean shaped things in the toilet. I fetched one out and squeezed it and it was like softer than cheese. I fetched another one out and put it in a ziploc bag with some water in it to take and have it analized. I don't know if I should show it to my doctor first or go somewhere where someone knows what this is from looking at it. They float in the toilet and come out when I vomit, not in my stool.
thyroid problems can cause hair loss as well
I became very ill. pain, bloating and unable to eat without extreme pain and bloating . this went on for 4 years. I came to the point where I was living on skim milk and graham crackers and then one day I saw what looked like 3 beans floating above my poop and on top of the water. I retrieved them, cleaned them and being able to then see the color, they were a greyish pink, cut open, hollow and cream color. I looked at them through a jeweler loupe and could see they had suckers on them 2 on each. Shaped like almonds. they were very sticky. I put some in alcohol hoping to preserve them but they turned dark black and shriveled some. I put some in saline this was better but they didn't last long this way because they just sort of came apart and looked like hundreds of tiny eggs and probably was. I was happy to find them online, just knowing I would now get medical help. These were parasites called Flukes yet every doctor I saw said it could not be because I had not left the USA and we dont, have them here so I got no help and had to turn to a mixture of essential oils and after 2 days the pain was gone and the next day I could eat without bloating. I found the info at curezone,com sorry I cant recall the name of the book or author but its all over that website, so today if you go to center of disease control, you will find we do in fact have them in this country and, many of our states are endemic. I think i'm rid of them now but i'm noticing that same old pain (not bad as before]
What you are finding in ur stool, the same shape as the medication you are taking, metformin? I was just curious.
Mine once was a deep reddish color filled with red goo like liver pate...(sorry about that)...and outside casing was hard almost like a very thin shell of an egg.
Now I see them and they are an off white and barely nothing inside of them. All the same shape...like a pill with a hard outside..almost like a hard thin plastic or thin egg shell type. They are clearly both the same shape but different colors with different insides. Now for the last week I've had diarrhea and cramping and very tired and weak. I guess its time to go to the doctors. haven't seen any since I got diarrhea...Thanks
sound like you have a parasite so go to the health store and get a parasite cleanse.
sounds like candida.
I ALSO HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH BEAN LOOKING OBJECTS IN THE STOOL . i've had diarreaha with no cramping for the last 10 yrs . i usually dont look at my poo, but seen the beans and took them to be analyzed. i was told they are mucus plugs . what ever they are dont seem to cause any problems and are the bodies natural way of trying to fix something . it ain't killed me yet. so dont freak ou
I've had these white slightly green peas in my stool several times the last year. I think it all started when I was 18 and started to have chronic acid reflux. Then it turned into a stomach ache and bloating to certain foods I was used to eating. Then I got shortness of breath. Was always feeling bad. Have been to doctors and spent hundreds of dollars on test with no diagnosis. Then my rectal always was semi infected and has never got better. Then I had long periods of depression and then two bipolar episodes. Which I've never been bipolar before. And finally started having these peas in my stool. Have done a lot of research for these symptoms and everything points to Candida. A fungis that starts in the stomach and then gets in all your organs including your brain. I'm on a special diet now and it hurt when I started it but now am feeling better everyday.
