My advice would be to see your GP as soon as possible. Bleeding should always be investigated. Might not be serious at all, but you need to know what's causing it. Hope you get on ok. Take care.

Blood in your stool means contact your doctor asap. Leave a message with the nurse and if they don't call back either call them again or find another doctor. I wish you luck and will follow you to see how it goes. My prayers are with you.

I am 49 and still having periods but I am waiting a m.r.i. On my brain and to see a neurologist I am experiencing alot of back pain dizziness I have been off work 1 year now and still got a confirmed diagnoses expect spinal stenosis

Blood in stools wouldn't be related to your spine or your periods. I would go to your dr to have it checked out.

I would go to urgent care at your local hospital tomorrow morning when they open. They take things seriously.
