:sorry: Gross, graphic arse related question coming up folks (but I know I'm in the right place for such questions!!!) :sorry:

Ok, here goes (I am VILE). This is a new symptom for me : blobs of foul smelling jelly - like mucus (I apologise for graphic description. Am absolutely horrified at this latest development). Does anyone else have this? Please share your experience & advice with me. I'm worried about this (& repulsed).
 
Looks kind of like brown tinged sticky snot (sometimes also for me it's just cloudy)? Well that kind of consistency anyway, if so I get the exact same thing! I also find it repulsive but I guess it's just something else we have to put up with!

Wow..yeah...I get this too. I just posted about my "alien looking mucus"...about half the time I have that....and the other half...I get more of the jelly looking stuff....sometimes thats all I pass...is the jelly type mucus. I have noticed a strange odor to it....but to me..it almost smells like that iron-y blood type smell. Ok...I'm getting way too gross too..lol...sorry. I don't have a diagnosis yet....so we'll see..just wanted to let you know that i deal with this too. Take care!

I get mucus, too... sometimes clear, sometimes yellowy-brown tinged and sometimes even greenish... And not always with diarrhea.
 
I get mucous all the time but it isnt what I call foul smelling. Could be what you ate>? VERy common in Crohn's to lose mucous.
 
Oh thank you all so much for your reassuring replies. Very very grateful. Natalie, your description is entirely accurate. Olivia, yours too. So I suppose this is just another one of those lovely symptoms we all have to learn to live with. xxxxxxxxx
