Q: blood in stool with DVT
asked by: cera1756 on February 2nd, 2008

I was recently diagnosed with Extensive DVT and I am wondering about blood in mt stool. Is this a normal thing or something to be concerned about? I just scheduled an appointment with my primary doc. But will not be able to see her for about another week. After spending over a week in the hospital I am in no rush to return there if there is no need. I have back and side pain and am wondering if I may be bleeding internally with out knowing it. Any advice would be great thanks. I am a 26 year old female if that helps any. Rolling Eyes

Are you taking a blood thinner/anticoagulant? This can cause bleeding because it inhibits the clotting mechanisms in the blood. If you keep experiencing this you should contact your doctor or his/her nurse and report the bleeding.
