I suggest you just make an appointment to see your physician, the sooner the better. There are several reasons you could be bleeding some of them have nothing to do with medication, although medication cannot be discounted. Don't be concerned about getting prepared just let your physician ask the questions to try and identify the cause.
A lot depends on uf it's bright, fresh blood, or old blood.I've had that, and contacted the GP. I must say I felt he was very casual about it, I know this can happen on any form of anticoagulant, but my brother died of bowel cancer, as well as 2 other members if my family, and I did expect a poo sample test as a basic precaution.
I was told by my GP that aspirin can cause haemorrhoids to bleed. It would be a good idea as others have said to check with your GP, just to put your mind at rest.
My mother-in-law had a bowel haemorrhage after taking it for a few years and I gather, in the UK, it's not always prescribed anymore because of these risks
HI Michelle, I had this happen to me, I was concerned enough to get it checked out, my Dr checked me out and it was Heamoroids , but she said " Quote" " good that you came, blood in stools could be many things and Always needs checking out " Unquote x
hi. I’m currently going through tests for the same thing. I’m on warfarin and my gp said that it could have caused the blood in my stool but that, to be on the safe side, I should be checked. I had a fit test which found blood in my stool (although a low score) so he referred me to hospital. I’ve recently had a ct colonoscopy and I’m waiting for the results. I know a couple of people who were diagnosed with bowel cancer and I didn’t want to take any chances. I must admit that it’s been a very worrying time but I’m told that there are a multitude of reasons why you can find blood in your stool. Best to get checked.
