Blood in Poos

We spent most of the day in hospital with Joey today as this morning his poos were streaked with blood

The GP sent us to the hospital and on the way there Joey became unconcious for a good 30 minutes when we were stuck in traffic... I have never been more scared in my life Anyway, after a lot of blood tests etc. and waiting for ages we were sent home with a list of things to watch out for. He has been more like himself this afternoon, thank goodness, and his poos seem to be back to normal.

Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen and what it was as they don't seem to have any idea at the hospital??

You poor thing how scary! Glad to hear he's better!

Omg Ana that is scary!! I will be thinking of you guys and I hope they tell you what is happening with him.. doctors are annoying sometimes and they don't always give you the right advice or know what is wrong.

***BIG hugs to you and Joey***

Thanks for your support, it is really scary. I am really nervous and don't want to leave him out of my sight even though he seems pretty normal again now, the unconciousness really freaked me out the most, but the docs didn't even seem worried about that, hmmmm, weird. I check every nappy very thoroughly too but it looks quite good now... Fingers crossed...

I'm so glad to hear that Josef is ok Ana! It must have been so scary for you. But I agree with Roksana - if you don't get the answers you need, push harder. I had to with Maya, and I am so glad I did.

I am going to the hospital in a minute for a check up. Joey has still had tiny specks of blood in with his poos and was crying lots this morning and obviously uncomfortable. He has been vomiting a lot more today again too. Just milk or half digested milk or sometimes clear liquid. I really want to know what is wrong. i'll let you know how it goes at the check up, we should have some results from the tests they did on Tues.

Oh Ana Big hugs . Hope they give you some answers. He is just on BM? Maybe its a dairy or a gluten allergy i wonder if they have discussed with you about going on a dairy free diet? Sorry Just trying to wrack my brain for possibilities.

Typical....do these docs know any thing?? Arrrgggg

I would be sooooo angry...and they would know it too. Blood just does not appear in poos...so there must be a reason, no matter how insignificant it might be...and they have no idea....Arrrggggg

Sorry....I just hate that some times...I had few bad experiences here with Docs......

Ana I hope that Josef gets better, he such a cutie and he look healthy so I am sure he will be just fine. Give him our .

And keep us updated!

He's ok. Had lots of blood again yesterday and he cries a lot these days I have decided to take dairy out of my diet and see how it go\es, I can't be botheres for the docs... I also think it could have something to do with peanuts, ate peanut butter for brekkie and at lunchtime his poos were bloody.. We'll see, just trial and error now! I will definitely call the paed on Thurs though!

Do you need a hand with eliminating dairy? there are one or 2 dairy free margerines you can get. Gingernuts are dairy free. Some breads are. Marshmellows are. Emma will probably be able to help you out too! going dairy free isnt that bad. After a couple of grocery shops you will get really good at reading the labels and seeing whats in food. I couldnt beleive that there is even milk products on the salt in chips.
