I believe my doctor, my normal has changed over the years and I’m sure will continue to do so. If you can think of a combination of weird stool I’ve had it, more than once. Undigested stuff is pretty normal for me - that being said even my partner with a healthy normal bowel has that sometimes too.
Yep I have all sorts of shapes colours and sizes even when I’m not experiencing pain or other symptoms. I have no worries that I have anything other than IBS, even through my worst health anxiety I have managed to be sure of that, now that health anxiety has been beaten to a pulp and doesn’t get a say in my life I think about it even less.
