Passing blood in stools,bloated feeling ,had a scope done got all clear so wots !


Question: Dear there are two kinds of scopes. One for stomach is called Endoscopy, where a tube with camera, is passed through mouth to stomach. The other is a Colonoscopy, where the scope is passed through the rectum up through the intestines and colon.
If you only had one and are still passing blood in stools, you really need the other, to check your entire digestive system. Very important you stay on top of this, sounds like you have an ulcer and they can perforate and require emergency surgery. Call your doctor back, as long as you are bleeding, I do not see how he (doctor) can give you an all clear.

Go to Dr's asap. Or even casualty, for a check-up. Blood in stools is red flag for immediate attention.
NHS direct : tel 0845 46 47 48 U.K.(I think,it's in the phone book-but guarantee they will say go for immediate attention!)
Look after yourself, best wishes

That's one only a doctor can answer; but however it's not right so keep onto them until they find the answer...

Didn't you ask why you're passing blood if nothing showed up on the scope ???
