ohhh.... so ya mean folks with D can have mucous, TOO? had no clue! and would't have thought that. i took it that this was more C, esp. with all the dairy. the mucous + horrid pain + pushing sounded exactly like C to me. i've been there, not all that long ago; but not this severe. still no fun, tho! and weak & nauseated with it. the frequency of bathroom time *may* be pain + desperation/ frustration...and it's so hard not to get even more uptight while attempting to deal with this....
the low to NO dairy helps alot with constipation, mucous, even sinus probs, but it doesn't eradicate the mucous entirely, at least for me. i *think* taking SFs first, then introducing probiotics, no calcium whatsoever - and a big key/ breakthru can be taking a GI-stimulating antidepressant, like prozac - all to gets things going, but still may take a couple to a few days. i need klonopin to 'balance out' the prozac, too, but have to watch i don't increase the dose = more C. my 'latest' is adding fiber Ensure with FOS & that seems to make the biggest improvement thusfar in my C...when i can tolerate it, as its abit rough/ nauseating. sheesh, C is often such a mystery, it's so hard not to get ultra preoccupied with it.
so, sair, are you talking about extreme constipation w/ mucous & fairly rare diarrhea? we need to get a better idea of just what you are talking about re: these issues.
