Last Friday my gut started really rumbling (like it was going too fast iyswim) and I started passing loads of globs of mucous out of my bum. Felt completely fine in myself - thought it was just an odd thing.
It carried on and when I went to work on Monday there was so much coming out (it's hard to be completely continent of it) I ended up having to get changed . Loads of globs and strings of it. My poo remained normal but had to go to the loo loads of times to pass the mucous.
Rang GP for advice. He said he'd "never heard anything like it" and to send a stool sample. Which I did. Although there was no stool in it, just the browny/yellow jelly-slime stuff.
I'm waiting for the results of the sample. But now have developed diarrheoa over the past 3 days. Have lost about 4 pounds in weight this past week as no appetite now. No fever. Just loads and loads of trips to the loo with mucous and now diarrheoa. Urgency.
I guess it sounds like IBS but never had issues before? Can it just come on like that? I'm not particularly stressed right now....
That has to be the most disgusting thing I think I've ever typed. Would appreciate any advice....
