Thanks for putting up your query at Chat Doctor. The stool report is otherwise normal except for some amount of undigested food material in the stool. It needs to be clinically correlated to malabsorption if symptoms are there. The stool pH is normally alkaline. Neutral indicates that some amount of acids has been present in order to neutralize it. It could be due to bacterial degeneration of undigested carboy Chat Doctor.  Had I known the symptoms for which the stool test had been done, I would have been able to comment better. Mucus threads are not a cause of concern. I hope that helps. Feel free to revert with further queries if any.
