Welcome to HCM
appreciate your concern for your health
Is this ist episode of pain and blood in stool.
Ist you need to make sure that it was blood in the stool.was it red and fresh or brown colored clotted and old bleed?
the pain may be related to the blood in the stool.The kidney stone you had must have passed but you have not noticed it.kidney stone wont cause bleed in stool.It may be from the lower intestines if it was fresh blood.Drink lot of fluids and consult a physician for rectal examination if pain or bleed persists
stay healthy
