I am suffering from Barrett?s oesophagus and ulcerative colitis. Recently, I have noticed undigested solid food particles in my stool. Is this normal, and what should I do?

Seeing small amounts of undigested food in the stool can be normal, especially with ulcerative colitis, but frequent or large amounts may suggest active inflammation or poor digestion. If this is new, persistent, or accompanied by other unusual symptoms, please consult your doctor or a gastroenterologist for a review and possible adjustment of treatment.
