Hi!
I struggle with this same thing actually. It's been a new development in my symptoms, but I do understand. So, my issue is that when the pain gets really bad and the mucous is coming on its on, I also sometimes get blood in the mucous. I was pretty freaked out and went to see my doc about it all. She told me the mucous isn't anything too alarming (still not healthy), but the bigger problem was the bleeding. For me, my colonoscopy showed possible colitis, which explains the bleeding and mucous. I would still encourage a talk with a doc about it--I know my doc said being very C can be a reason for the mucous, but I'm pretty regular now thanks to daily colace and align... So, I believe I have a touch of colitis--but am trying very hard not to take any medication for it. I'm sensitive to it all, and really don't want to have those side effects. But, even with the colitis, I think a lot of my cramping/mucous stuff is probably IBS related. Lucky me--I get them both! ha! I don't know if any of this helps, but just wanted to share my story with yoU!
hang in there--
