I Get Blood In My Stool, Is It Because Of Coffee ?

Hello, sometimes, if I drink lots of coffee, there is blood in my stool. I went to the doctor before, and he wasn t able to find anything, but that was before I realized it seems to be linked to coffee. CAN coffee be the reason? If so: Should I quit drinking alltogether, or just regulate it? I had 3 Espresso and 2 Cappuccino yesterday, thats way more than usually.
