I've had an ileostomy for 4 years. Still have some colon left, though. I've always had mucus, but only first thing in the am, maybe 2-3 times, and then nothing until the next morning. 3 days ago, I had mucus at 11 pm at night, which has never happened. Then yesterday, it was every 4 hours until bedtime, and today it's every 2-3 hours. I've had clear mucus and sometimes tinged with blood for the last 4 years, and this is the same except for a bit more blood than usual. I feel fine - no temp - no discomfort, but I'm still planning to call my Dr. tomorrow. Has anyone ever had this happen?
