Hon,If I had symptoms like that, I wouldn't be waiting until Monday! Sounds like you have an impacted bowel (in my not-so-professional opinion). But whatever it is, you need to go in like yesterday! Tar stools means there is considerable blood in there (or your taking iron)...bright red blood means you're bleeding and unless you have hemmerhoids, its likely intestinal bleeding.Sent on the TELUS Mobility network with BlackBerryFrom: LMay Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2009 07:52:55 -0500< >Subject: Help Needed Hi If anybody  is reading I am scared I have been hurting in my left side for months it felt like a big knot by my bellybutton and now I am passing tar stools and bright red blood out of both I know I should go to the doc's but my husband goes into the hospital monday.

another thought, LMay

one friend had abdominal pain from diverticulitis, an inflamation of 'pockets' in the colon

she had one pocket that got in further trouble

with bleeding

from treatment, she is now fine

they said it was lucky she came right in

hugs, Jean

have you left for the ER yet???

I don't have ANY medical degrees LMay, but I think you should get to the ER yourself... right away!!! NOW!

It might not be anything too bad, but I sure would have a doc check it out!! just in case!!

We want to keep you 'round!!

hugs, and wishing for the best...

Do you want your husband recovering without you? Seriously! It might be nothing, and it can be just about anything....and time is essential...might be the differencre (for example) of needing a laxative or enema, and neding surgery, or worse. Blood is a sign that something is wrong and unless you are sure of the cause, you really need to go in.I have a friend who I met in neuro-rehab...had she gone in a few days earlier, she'd still be walking now.Sent on the TELUS Mobility network with BlackBerryFrom: LMay Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2009 12:15:21 -0500< >Subject: Re: Help Needed I am going to hold off unless it gets worse.

I'm sorry to say this but you sound like a martyr. My spelling may be off. You need to go to the Emergency Room now. Is there anyone who could take you, a friend or a relative. You could have cancer. You know a polyup that's gone bad. This does not sound good to me at all. Also you must be feeling crappy losing all that blood. You need to go now! Don't wait until your husband is alright again. You need to take care of yourself. You could be putting a death tag on yourself. I'm sorry to be so blunt but you really need to go to the ER now. Where do you live? Does anyone in the group live close by, maybe they would be willing to take you to the ER if you can't find a friend or a relative to take. Don't worry about your husband, he'll be alright. He's a big boy now. Please go to the ER. Call the parametics if you have to. You will get a ride to the hospital and will probably be seen right away. They are going to want to do a scan on you. I'm not sure about the colonscopy. They want to know right away what's going on. Also if you can bring a same of the stool so they can analyze it. Trust me about this. The longer you wait, the more of a chance you will pass out from lack of blood and pain. You have some control over the problem. Also you know have everyone who's in the group worried sick about you. GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. I can't say it any plainer than that. Lucille What are you  passing Blood out besides the obvious; your bellybutton or your vagina. You are having a massive bleed if you have blood coming out of two places. I know a friend of mine bled for a week. She ended being in the hospital for over a week because she wouldn't tell them what was wrong with her. GO NOW Lucille

I am so very glad you at least called the doc.

though I do wish they had urged checking it out further NOW

but ok, they have the degrees, not me...

and very glad that you have now AGREED to go to the ER, if it even SEEMS MAYBE different...

even if it is the time for your hubby to go for HIS situation... right?

and we do understand how close you two are, and how you want to 'be there' for him....

however, yup, sometimes to 'be there' for each other, sometimes you have to take care of yourself first.

right???

ok - maybe not, maybe if one goes, you prefer it to be you first...

which would leave HIM alone....

'tis tough, very tough -- agreed....

We are hoping that if you BOTH take good care of yourselves -- as well as each other, that you both can be around for a long time.

anyway, my thoughts on a hot evening
