Seraph 10-15-2007, 05:00 AM Dark blood comes from the veins, brighter blood is arterial. BiggerMac 10-25-2007, 03:15 PM If you are dumb enought to smoke, that might be the cause. In that case dark red is the result of elevated hemoglobin... your body's attempt to compensate for the smoke. I had that for years before I quit. . But there are a lot of other possible causes too. A visit to your doc is probably the best way to ease your mind. BiggerMac |
