Re: blood after a flare up
Is the blood actually in the poo or in the toilet bowl after a bowel movement?
Is it bright red or dark red?
Are you sure it isn't undigested food?
Re: blood after a flare up
I was actually thinking it was indigestive food but when I ask my gp if that is the case she always wants to do samples on me and makes out itsa serious thing and it kind of freaks me out a little.
But I was thinking it could be and yes its bright red and in my poo.
But one of the nurses said it could be an affect from a painful flare up and then I hear from sources that with IBS you should NOT have blood in your poo.
All the samples came back negative which they found no traces of bleeding, so I am relieved with that idea but still want to be 100% convinced as I believe things like this should be investigated further for safety reasons.

Another thing its not there all the time and not everytime I have a flare up either I only noticed it a few times and twice told the doctor about it.
