Kandee, I think this may help "explain" it, also I get the feeling the exact cause of it is somewhat a mystery.
It sure seem this is the case!!!

as the bowel wall spasms it sheds cells in IBS, which is annoying but harmless.

"Excess mucus production, which often occurs in IBS, is not related to mucosal injury. Its cause is unclear, but it may be related to cholinergic hyperactivity."
http://www.merck.com/mrkshared/mmanual/section3/chapter32/32a.jsp Thanks so much for the site...What it did say was that the mucus was more common in "c's" so that would make sense since I am one.

I have also read that dairy can cause it, but there may or may not be truth to that? I've been known to cheat at times with dairy, so that would make sense too.




Thanks so much, but what I want to know Ibsgrl, is what is your first name, and how did you get to be so INCREDIBLY smart for such a young age????????????
