Mucus is caused when the intestines have spasms, the lining of the intestinal walls rub together, creating the oh so terrible and ugly mucus. Now, I could be wrong, someone else on the boards may know more about it. I dont seem to suffer from it as much when I am taking an anti-spasmodic, like Hyoscyamine-(Levbid). I have been under mega-stress lately and I have had a few episodes of it. Luckily, it happened at home and I had time to change before I left. I have friends who carry extra undies in their bags, and complete change of clothing in their vehicle. This is something I need to do for myself. I also have a friend who carries a small pair of collapsable scissors (at all times), they come in very handy to just cut off the panties and toss them. When you have no other choice, sometimes you have to or may be more comfy going (la bare)!!!!
I know this all sounds so ugly, but with us IBSr's it is reality. I hope this helped some. gayla
