I had a bowel movement approximately 20 minutes ago, and noticed a strange, salmon pink colored substance in my stool. I was recently diagnosed with Crohn's disease, and am taking Lialda and Prednisone, but neither of the drugs has worked. I am still having moderate to severe symptoms (including blood and mucus in diarrhea). Because I'm worried about my bowel health, I actually retrieved a bit of this substance from my stool. It is very thin, the consistency of a balloon almost, and there were pieces of it all throughout. What is this? Do I need to go to the hospital? Or can I wait until I can call my Dr. tomorrow?
