um tell him to stop eating out of the trash...
actually if he has that much blood in his stool he needs to see a doc cause he could have a hemmorage in his intestine or a possible tear,cyst rupture etc.
go to the ER..now
Could be roids.(not the kind you like) Yeah, he should see a dr right away.
if i had that much blood in my stool i wld b seeing a doctor right away... better safe than sorry

This happened to me as well. But not that much. Also it was because I was taking T3. Is he taking T3?
I have a little bit of blood in there sometimes but never really thought anything of it. :?: should i?
i wld think a little bit cld b caused by hemroids. but a 1/2 pint, that cld b serious.
Go see a doctor immediatly.
You could also PM the medical advisor on AR, "HeartDocMD", he helped me with a problem I had with my eye.
could be some internal bleeding, nothing to kid round bout. see the doc.
yeah thats BAD- doc goto now immediatly your friend YEP
Sometimes if you shit too much you can rip your asshole and have blood. You than have to take a stool softener. But your friends condition you should see a doctor.
if he is havin THAT much blood in it, then he may wanna get a colonoscipy (sp?) just to make sure he doesnt have somethin like crohn's or ulcerative colitis. i have ulcerative colitis and thats was the first thing that happened to me, blood in stool.
What is that from?Quote:

I have bloody stool now from a different type of roids, starts with "hemer"
A half pint of blood and he is asking what to do? How do these people feed themselves?
If I had a quarter of a pint of blood dripping out my ass, I think I would see a doctor.
Keep this guy away from sharp objects.
Maybe he exagerating in any case if it more than a few drops (piles etc) it's time for the Doc.
I hate to say this but i must, i have heard this response over and over on this board and it troubles me, I have this problem, i have that problem, which i might add are serious, but people are afraid to go to the Dr's because they are juicing, listen, grow up, is your life or health really worth lying to your Dr that you took some juice? I am not saying tell him you did, when they do the blood work they will figure that one out on their own, it could be a host of things, but since you are doing something that your not quite sure about to begin with your brain tells you, its the juice.
I personally would not even think of putting anything in my body unless it was (A) Scripted by a Dr. or (B) Tested by a lab. Sure if u need it tested by a lab it will add another deuce on to your cycle, but isn't piece of mind worth it? JM2C worth.
I have Crohn's, really bad, too, and I have never passed that much blood at once... usually only a few tablespoons at the most, during a bad attack. A half pint is pretty serious. He may as well stop eating solid food right now, go on clear liquids like apple juice or white grape juice and maybe some pedialite or similar, and of course get his ass to the doc pronto. They will probably want to do a colonoscopy so may as well start the prep now. After two days on clear liquids, you usually purge with a full bottle of phospho-soda, and next morning flush out with several serious enemas. They have to have a clean colon to see WTF is going on up there. They give you a shot of morphine and demerol to give you a nice floating numbness but keep you conscious. Then they stick that thing several feet up your ass, and if you are lucky, you get to watch the monitor and see what the doc sees. Kinda neat, but it hurts. Even with the dope, I was still in a lot of pain. Not blunt trauma from the probe, but from the air they pump in there to expand the walls for easier passage of the probe.
The key issue is the color of the blood. I'm assuming that since he said a half pint that it was red. Typically, this is caused by a fissure (a tear in the rectal tissue) or possibly a a ruptured hemorrhoid (sp). While it is disconcerting, it is usually not a big deal.
Your friend needs to increase his fluid and fiber intake. Cut down on heavy squatting movements for a couple weeks, and if it continues to happen see a doctor.
Black "tarry" stool on the other hand, is a concern and indicates some type of internal bleed.
p.s. I am not a doctor, I just play one at work.

I had blood in my stool last fall. Scared the HELL out of me, too. Ended up I have some mild ulcerative colitus, which is in complete control with a drug called Asacol. I also had the colonoscopy done, but requested to be put completely under. However, I woke up at the very end and vaguely remember them sliding that damm thing outta my ass. Nasty. At least the nurse was hot. Damm hot. Anyway - with that much blood you need to see a doctor. Pronto.
This might be a little more detail than I needed during lunch. :lol:Quote:
