  1. Hi . Your frustration and anxiety are certainly understandable. I do know that yellow in the stool can be from bile, which gallbladder and liver issues which are not uncommon with IBD. This article from our editorial team gives an overview of inflammation in the liver and bile ducts: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/symptoms/inflammation-of-the-liver-and-bile-ducts. I also want to share with you this article on tenesmus which sounds somewhat like what you are talking about: https://inflammatoryboweldisease.net/living/tenesmus-feeling. I'm not saying these things are what you are experiencing (only a doctor can do the proper diagnostics), but want to share the information. Hopefully this can inform further conversations with your doctors. If you feel your concerns are not being heard please don't hesitate to seek another opinion. You deserve to be listened to. Hope you get some answers and relief soon. Please feel free to keep us posted on how you are doing and to ask further questions. Best, Richard (Team Member)
