Today when I went to the bathroom, my stool was greenish. It almost looked like it had green moss growing on it. Does anybody know if this is a sign of colon cancer? I’ve had other colon cancer symptoms as well lately and I have a doctors appointment scheduled for July 6th.

I’ve never heard of green stool being a symptom of colon cancer, but I am just curious.

usually not a cancer symptom. People with IBS (such as myself) can get that ocassionally when food is digested too quickly I believe. Whatever the case, it is always good to have a Dr. check you out when you have symptoms that are not usual for you.
You wouldn’t have happened to maybe eat some green veggies in the last few days? No, it’s not a sign of cancer. What would your other symptoms happen to be?
Have you drank grape juice recently? The dye in the juice turns stool a forest green color.
