The chemicals maybe, I don’t know which ones. I’m not a poop or perm expert.

    I mean no doubt, the bar to visit a doctor for me is just higher than that. It would take a while for me to visit a doctor over a different smell. But I have the bar pretty high, admittedly.

      Yeah fair enough. I couldn’t even afford health insurance for the first couple years working as a civ surgical tech, so my emergency plan was basically ‘if I die I die’, so I definitely get it.

      But do at least treat those kinds of changes as a contributing factor to consider along any other symptoms you notice. Sudden change in smell, color, consistency, frequency, etc - any one of them, keep an eye on it; all of them at once (and again, lasting longer than what just a bad meal would cause), something is definitely fucked up.
