Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history of having blood in stool after returning from Phuket, Thailand, not well since then hence the Doctor asked for investigations of blood and urine test.
Surely yes, go back to the Doctor, also get the stool sample to get investigated.
You may need a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole. Addition of Probiotics, banana, curds/yogurt can helps early recovery.
I find this answer helpful
