Stool contains food eaten 10 days ago.

2017-12-11 22:28:04
Defecation of undigested food that was eaten 10 days ago, diarrhea, continuous bloating and sometimes colic pain. Is that a serious problem? Can the GIT keep the food for 10 days before expelling it? What are the diagnostic tests I should have and what are the causes of that case? *I have gastritis and GERD* I am a 21 year old medical student girl.
