9Fatty Stools
The pancreas produces enzymes that help in the digestion of food. When this organ does not function properly, you will experience several bouts of indigestion. Since it takes extra effort to digest fats, difficulty in digesting them means you are likely to encounter them in your waste. With a destroyed pancreas, you will begin to pass fatty stools that are loose, greasy, foul-smelling and quite difficult to flush. This is a symptom seen in people with chronic pancreatitis. [7]
