What Causes Severe Pain In Anus Along With Blood In Stools?

Dr. Rynne, I am a 33 year old male. I am on Zoloft and Prazosine for PTSD. I am having a lot of bowl problems. I have sever pain followed by bloody stool where I will lose up to a pint or 2 of blood and become dependent on my wife to take care of me. I go to the VA and all the tell me is it s my hemorrhoids. I do not believe this is true. Can you tell me what else maybe going on and what I can have my doctor check me for? I served 12 1/2 years in the military. I am starting to wonder if I need to be checked for cancer since it does run heavy in my family. I am concerned for my health due to I have 2 children of my own and I am helping to raise my 3 step children. PLEASE HELP ME!!! Wallace Campbell
