I've been 100% raw for about 3 months now.
3 weeks ago all of the sudden I started having lots of pain while passing stool and since then it's been greasy and sticky with bad smell. The color is not changed.
I did 3 stool tests 2 for bacteria infection and 1 parasites but they came negative.
Since I went raw my digestion was much better and I used to pass stool two times a day without any smell or stickiness, much better than ever.
I don't think it's because of introducing a new food to my diet because I was having the same food when this problem started. however I had some raw crackers I never had tried before that day, which I had bought and stored them about 1 month in the fridge. I was suspicious about that but it's been 3 weeks and it didn't heal and no bacteria infection in the test results.
So right now I just go to the bathroom once a day and it's a bit painful (not as bad as the first time though) but still uncomfortable and it's greasy, more like pencil-thin and has smell.
Any suggestion what may cause this? anyone with similar experience?
My doctor prescribed Metronidazole antibiotics after he said there's nothing in the test what should I do, maybe the test results doesn't show it, but he was saying that these things should heal in couple of days. So I'm not sure if I would take the antibiotics.
About my diet:
I usually have some fruits (banana, mango, grapes, watermelon, berries) in the morning I usually chop them for salad or recently I started making green smoothie for breakfast with hempseeds and dulse added. I have about 1-1/2 cups of nuts (soaked in water overnights or from morning depends I usually switch between "almond, walnuts, hazelnuts, brazilnuts" soaked overnight and "cashews, sunflowers, pistachio, pecans" soaked 4-6 hours) with some bananas or grapes for snack, and then a green salad with avocado or a soup with carrots with more fruits for dinner.
