I have blood in my stool 3 weeks after Gastric bypass surgery. Worried

Contact your surgeon or their team. Always better to be safe and sure about what’s going on.

Could you have pulled something? Like stretched too much, lifted something too heavy, exercised too strenuously? Have you been constipated and maybe pushed to oop too much or your poop was overly firm? Let your surgeon know if any of these could be a possibility.

Hope all will be okay.

Definitely contact your surgeon and make note of what colour the blood is.

I had blood in my stool on and off for many months post-surgery, but it was down to severe constipation. Blood was red, and there was splatters of blood in the water etc caused by fissures, which can be normal when constipated and you tear essentially.

Make sure you are drinking enough water as this will help with constipation, milled linseed (2 tsp a day), and kiwis are also good for this. That is if it is constipation you are struggling with!

Either way, please do contact a professional.
