Recovering from gastric flu & diarrhoea. my stool is starting to harden but the colour is very pale. i have stopped meds yesterday. should i worry?

No: Lighter stool during recovery from a gastroenteritis infection is not worrisome. It will become regular color as your diet advances to routine foods.
