As in peanut butter or some diabolical compound that is part adhesive, part irritant with a viscous cohesive consistency that can be extruded as long as you can strain? Or, this intermixed with gas and greatly increased volume that must come out?
This is unlikely but I had a gooey oatmeal diahrrea caused by too much vitamin D3, maybe. At any rate I tested high so I stopped my rather large supplements of D3 which included 2 10,000IU D3. However, it might be time to reevaluate your enzyme regiment and electrolyte/water intake.
For probably five years, my GI system has been the source of more pain and nausea and nothing close to normal. I spent a lot of time reviewing the known medical practices and current knowledge of optimization of the bowel. The change smacks of enzyme dysfunction. Either more enzymes need to be taken or more water is required to properly hydrate food in the small bowel for improved absorption. Hard diahrrea is either a mix of water and bits of hard stool or a perfectly pliant DIOS.
Distal Intestinal Obstructive Syndrome is often the cause of diahrrea like you describe. The bowel obstruction(s) usually occur at the junction of the large and small bowels however it's mainly the adhesive quality of the food/feces that causes the regions of pressure and the toxins in the food mix precipitating bowel spasms. Loose enzymes, enzymes and bile that miss combining with foods are superb irritants and maldigestion causes the liquid nails quality goo we call a bowel movement.
My CF is GI dominant and I recently had a pleasant surprise recently. In a turn of luck I am trying some extreme enzyme dose changes. First, increasing my Creon, doubling it gave me something that wasn't formed but was more like the skoots you're describing. After a visit to NJH's dietitian I am trying Zenpep and Viocase, an old immediate release enzyme and for the first time in a very long time, I had a formed stool and didn't require the modified belt sander I traditionally use to clean my bottom.
I really had to increase my liquids including electrolytes. As a suggestion, increasing your enzymes and varying when you take them might help. By taking an enzyme capsule half an hour prior to eating and one near the last bight might help tune the best time. It surprised me how wide the range of knowledge and experience doctors and dietitians have concerning the topic of enzymes.
Best of luck,
LL
