Re: Anemia

Thanks for the post. I'm going to print all this out and bring it to
my doctor. The Hematologist also said that I'm probably losing blood
somewhere. I haven't noticed any blood being lost through the bowel
but sometimes you just don't know. When I had my bleed last year, it
was all due to the 2.5 cm ulcer. They found a pool of blood upon entry
with the endoscope. I also vomitted a lot of it up. Quite scary. Are
you suggesting I save all stool until they find it? Is there such
thing as being able to do the test to see if there's blood in my stool
from home? I know they've given me the kits but I'd have to mail it in
everytime I go. There has to be an easier way no?

Thanks!
Lisa
