My tummy has been off for a couple days and I drank a lot of alcohol last night which didn't help. I've had diarrhea all day which has been like mucus...I'm so scared can someone please give me advice, is it just the alcohol?

Hi there alcohol use to triget my ibs off and give me bad cramps and mucus stools too. So maybe it's just that alcohol aggregates your ibs. Try a couple of weeks months with out and see if you notice a change xxx

Not a problem huni, I hope you find out what triggers it and your able to work around it. Bacon eggs and garlic are common triggers of mine but they don't always effect me. Then there's your normal ones chocolate spicy foods, red meat xxxx

Resistant starch also promotes mucus - so processed carbohydrates like pasta bread products are not helpful - whether or not you use the gluten free varieties.

I have mucus in my stool often because I suffer with quite bad IBS (more dirreah than anything else) as graphic and awful as it sounds, do you find that you feel you need to go then when you do, it's just a small amount of mucus coming out? all it really means is that your bowel is inflamed, probably because of the alcohol. I find alcohol is the worst thing that irritates my ibs and I suffer greatly the day after and lasts for days. I haven't had a drop of alcohol in over a year now because of it. I hope you find relief soon, take care x
