Please can somebody help me, im in agony and feel like im going to pass out.

for the past 2 days i have been rushing to the toilet to push SO hard (harder than when i gave birth!!) and nothing comes but mucus mucus mucus. How can i stop this urgency and only passing mucus? What is causing it? My throat is sore from screming when im pushing and i have also strained a muscle in my back.

Im so miserable i just want to go to sleep until its all over. Im nearly 2 weeks into my anti depressants which my doctor says might help the ibs symptoms. should i wait longer for them to work?

Somebody please give me some answers soon as i cant keep pushing like this.

I would try lots of strong peppermint tea. It will help relax the muscles in the bowel. Also, antidepressants can take up to 12 weeks to work. You might try posting on the Eating for IBS Diet board, you are likely to get more responses there.
