| Re: Blood and Mucus in Stool
Just noticed you had three consecutive posts. I only read the last and responded so here's the addendum I guess.
Based on what I have read and been told, blood in stool is almost always a cause for concern and should garner attention. I suggest seeing your doctor and discussing the use of Immodium for extended periods of time. You may be inadvertantly damaging your stomach or intestinal lining.
See a doc - go over your diet in detail as well as medications and frequency of use (over the counter too). It's a good start. In the meantime, I would recommend stopping the Immodium unless directed by a doctor and rest your GI tract by avoiding harsh foods (acidic, fatty, spicy, alcohol).
