Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
if a 70 year old female has a hemoglobin count of 8, weak, pale,10 dark stools and is taken to hospital and given 1 unit of blood and it drops to 7 and given 2 more units and only has a endosocopy done and sent home in 2 days but no answers and had 3 more dark stools after going home could there be bleeding somewhere?
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have low hemoglobin and bloody stool. You should go for ultrasound abdomen and complete endoscopy. There should be bleeding somewhere in your gastrointestinal tract. Search for the cause and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
