Post Colon Op Bleeding

Although feeling well five days after the operation to have part of the colon removed, my wife has fresh blood in her stools. We were delighted that the bowel function returned to almost normal but are slightly concerned as she is taking injections to thin the blood. Any advice would be valuable. Thank you. 

  • Hello Bearcat

    I'm sorry to hear that you're wife has undergone some surgery recently and is now bleeding. If you've not already done so then do get in touch with her GP or the Consultant's secretary for some advice and support. 

    I hope that things settle and that the rest of her recovery goes smoothly. 

    Best wishes,
