New here and worried, for the past week I have had blood in the stools, the first time looked bad but since then it's been less and less blood, but today it's a bit more a bit brighter.

Saw my GP last week who said it wouldn't be anything to worry about.

Now tonight I can taste blood in my mouth slightly and I feel faint, dizzy and off balance and just a bit weird.

I think it's blood I can taste, either that or it's metallic.

Should I be worried, feel like I'm gonna keel over and die.

a metalic taste in the mouth is a classic symptom of anxiety so try not to worry too much

Try not to worry too much I asked my Gp about the same thing one day and he said bright red blood is undigested so is coming from low down in the body like the rectum(poss piles) although no harm in going back if you're still worried. Can also be something you've eaten-I remember going into a mad panic after going to the loo only to recall the huge plate of beet-root I'd stuffed into myself the day before. I also get that metallic taste in my mouth when I'm a bit panicky. Try not to get too stressed if possible-take care.:)
