Yellow Stools: Any significant change in bowel habits, particularly s/p bowel resection for cancer, should be reported to your treatment team immediately. Do the stools float? ( could mean problem with fat absorption) the yellow could be due to bile and could reflect a biliary obstructive problem. Consult your physician immediately.
