Noisy Stomach And Loose Stools With Clear Mucus Posted: 03-31-07 23:36pm
I'm a 30 yr old mother who recently
started having digestive problems. After I
eat my my stomach starts making these
weird growling noises which seem to go to
my colon and then is followed by very
loose stools or diahrrea that has clear
mucus accompanying it. At first I thought
I had the stomach flu and that it would go
away. It happens everyday and I am
starting to freak out and think that
something is seriously wrong with me. At
first I had slight stomach cramps when it
all started but those soon went away. I
have no pain, just a loud stomach and
grumbly colon with loose stools with clear
mucus. I am hoping to find a possible
solution as to why this is happening to
me. I recently have been under alot of
stress and I know my eating habits have
changed a little. Even though I have
started eating better the symptoms still
continue. I'm scared to go anywhere
because of the noises. scared to eat
before I go anyplace, and I've lost sleep
over this. Please Help!

Watch for blood in your stools and
definitely see your doctor. Patients who
develop colitis often know virtually
nothing about colitis and at the beginning
think it is just a long-lasting flu.
The doctor should test your blood for
white blood cells, platelets, and
hemoglobin, etc.
