Pale colored stool?

[KarMar]

I've been having stomach issues all week, which is rare for me. I took 1 normal dose of pepto 3 nights ago. The next morning my poop was half normal brown, half light brown. This morning was the first time I pooped since then and the stool was all pale brown/beige. I am scared. Could this be from the pepto I took that long ago?? Or do I need to see a doctor.

the stomach cramps were GONE all of yesterday, and started again at night. I had a bit of a stomach ache after going to the bathroom this morning, but it's pretty much fine now.

You're fine. As long as it's not white (as in a sheet of paper), bloody, or jet black, there's nothing wrong with you

Have your eating habits changed since the onset of the stomach issues? If so, that could be causing a change in the appearance of your stool, depending on what or how little you're eating. Are your symptoms still persisting?
