I asking for some prayers

OMG!  Spar...maybe you need to go to the emergency room instead of waiting.

spar....Even if it's something relatively innocuous causing the bleeding, you can't afford to lose so much blood, so I'd say if it happens again, you definitely should go to urgent care or the ER.

Good luck, hon, and keep us posted.

Have you ever had a colonoscopy?  Maybe its time to schedule one.

Oh sweetie! Bright red, IS normally from the lower bowel, and not further up, like the upper GI or stomach, so thats good.  BUT...do you have hemorriods? TMI, I'm sure, but they can bleed badly at times.  I remember people coming in to the ER with them and were scared sh*tless, which was understandable.  They are very vascular.  And we all know what the pain pills after surgeries have done to us in the movement dept, so perhaps you have some internal ones that are bleeding? 

Definitely get it checked if not with your doc, get to the ER.  And dh is right...get to the ER if it happens again tonight!  Thinking of you and hoping it's stopped and you are off to bed by now!

Spar !

I had no clue until JUST now...and I am much relieved to hear your okay !  THANK God... but I would still schedule a colonoscopy...(like Always Hope said) Have you had one recently ? Perhaps there are polyps that need to be removed (my dad had them...they were b9 but still needed to get them removed)

Soooo happy to hear your okay !

Spar, my dh has hemorrhoid's.  He bled A LOT.  A litle blood dropping in the water looks like a lot.  However, he wasn't bleeding just a little.  When he had the hemorrhoids removed he had to have blood work first.  His hemoglobin was only 9!  Unbelieveable!  The doc had his blood on hand in case he needed a transfusion.  He didn't, but he had to be put on iron.  Also, the doctor told him to take in more fiber.  He bought those little fiber wafers and it stopped the bleeding.  And, his last colonoscopy was clean.  That's when the doc convinced him to use fiber.  He said dh didn't want to keep getting hemorrhoids removed.  His were also internal.  And he had no pain.  So, if everything else is okay I would suggest you take in more fiber.

Hi Spar, I just read this post and actually read right through it. I'm so glad your okay, mind you hemoroids hurt so make sure you take stool softeners.  That would have scared the crap out of me.  (pun intended) Oh and Tucks feel really good on your bottom and just help with any burning if you have that.  Let us know what they think caused them they sound nasty and really painful. 

I will still say a prayer for you and I'm pleased that you found out so soon what it was.  Get well

big hugs,
