A member asked:
I just had a colonscopy 6 days ago because i have been having abdominal pain. since then my stools have been a grayish color and soft. normal?

Possibly: Stools may take a few days to normalize after colonoscopy, but 6 days is rather a long time. Gray colored stools are of concern if you also have jaundice (whites of your eyes become yellow). That would indicate a blockage of your common bile duct, and has nothing to do with the colonoscopy. In that case you need to contact your doctor.
