Thanks for the replies. Yes I was referring to mucus discharge from the rectum. My son is “temporarily” diverted and finds it very annoying. I know some mucus is normal but his seems excessive (5x per day).
He is eating a bit more and has a bit more energy. He still cannot gain any weight though. Is it generally difficult to gain weight with the loop ileostomy? He is so very thin 5’10” 105lbs
