I've seen a gp in the er was no help in solving the foul fecal odor... im desperate to find a cure. i've been waiting since sept for the gi. plz help!

Foul odor: I assume the stool was checked for blood. If not should be. Would look to diet and consider probiotic. May have colon populated by a particular odiferous organism.
