A member asked:
Why i have only mucus on my stool usually yellow and thats all that comes out just fatty mucus but normal colonoscopy?

Mucus on/in stool: If the colonoscopy was normal, and you don't normally suffer from chronic diarrhea, this most likely sounds like constipation. Your colon makes mucus to help ease the transit of stool.

Fiber and water: Increasing you intake of fiber and water may help. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods.
