What Causes Frequent Diarrhea?

I AM A 62 YEAR OLD WOMAN IN GENERALLY GOOD HEALTH. oVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS I HAVE UNDERGONE NUMEROUS TESTS TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FREQUENT DIARREAH (ULTRASOUND, CT SCAN AND COLONOSCOPY). ALL TESTS CAME BACK NORMAL......YAY! BUT IN THE LAST FEW DAYS I HAVE BEEN SPOTTING BRIGHT RED BLOOD EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN 12 YEARS SINCE MY LAST PERIOD! IS THIS SOMETHING I SHOULD BE RUNNING TO URGENT CARE ABOUT? OR WAIT UNTIL MY DOCTOR CAN SEE ME?
