Hello everyone,first time poster here 
I was diagnosed with SSC and completed 28 sessions of chemotherapy/radiotherapy at the beginning of December. I got through the post treatment phase of skin breakdown but have now developed another side effect that is proving very troublesome. To complicate things further, I have a fistula from the anal canal into my vagina. I had a colostomy in September.
I am now experiencing a lot of mucus, this is coming out of my vagina although the origin is difficult to pinpoint. The mucus is clear and non smelly so I’m not worried about infection really. But I’m finding it hard to manage,as normal sanitary/continence pads don’t allow it to soak up so it just sits there wetting me through. Has anyone else experienced an excess of mucus and is there anything else I can be doing?
thanking you in advance to anyone who can help
