A friend with breast cancer on chemotherapy, but pass mucous in stool for 3 week. what is her problem related and cause? any treatment need?

Chemotherapy does have side effects, especially risk of infection due to bone marrow suppression and if my assumption is accurate GI infection, either by bacteria or parasites, is still common in Taiwan so your friend should go to her family doctor for blood and stool tests.

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
