HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, neither the medicine not the medical condition of thyroid dysfunction could cause such blood stained stool, and if it is so then it need to be investigated but it is nothing to take with thyroid medicine and thyroid disease, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
