Can Bathroom Mold Cause Bloody, Mucus Stained Stools, Fatigue And Nausea?

I have been having bloody mucus stools for the past 24 hours non stop with nausea, severe cramping, fatigue, weakness, and it seems like I can t fully empty my bowls. My bathroom has mold in it (it has for years) and I wondered if the two were somehow linked.

Hello,
Thank you for your contact to health care magic. I understand your concern. If I am your doctor I suggest you that it can be possible with the mold only if exposure time is more or you have immunocompromised. But having mold in bathroom usually do not cause such a symptom because the exposure time in you is very small. I think there must be some other reason behind your symptoms.
I will be happy to answer your further concern
