So, for about a week, I thought that I had blood in my stool. Closely looking at the stool, I saw some red in parts of it. Because I got nervous, I actually took a stool sample these past two days and examined the red part closer. When I scraped away the stool, I found a reddish colored tape-like thing, somewhat transparent as well, maybe looking like an apple peel. Is it possible for a red apple peel to be in stool consistently (if you eat apple consistently)? What else could this be?

If you are eating apples, it might very well be the undigest apple peels that you are seeing. A lot of things can pass through our system undigested.

I to get the same way with any kind of veteble or fruit skins. My body for some reason does not digest any type of skins or even lettuce and peas. They come out the same way they went in.

could it be that you had found a tape worm in there? i once had pin worms i saw them in my stool they were white and small sormy things and then i called my mom to show her whatt i found and she took me right away to the doctor offfice, they took a sample and looked under the microscpope and that is what it was alright. i had to be on a medicine for a couple of weeks to clear them away. i found out the way you can get this is if you eat your finger nails after gardening or nothaving washed them. so remember to wash your hands often so you dont get these nasty little buggers mistyone
