What Does Redness In Stool After Precancerous Polyp Removal Indicate?

In august of 2014, my gi removed a precancerous polyp from the colon and diagnosed acute gastroentitis as well. In february, I noticed some redness in the stool - I wasn t sure if I d had beets in my vegetable juice that morning to cause it or if it was bleeding so I requested my GI to repeat the colonscopy which is now scheduled for the 14th. He also gave me samples of dexilant that helped. I ran out of the samples and the medical insurance only approved a generic drug instead. I did not start taking it but for two evenings now, when wiping after urinating, I had bright red blood on the tissue paper. No pain just blood. It doesn t come all the time - just once or twice after urinating and only in the evening. I have also been experiencing stomach ache after eating and fullness through the day. please advise. Thanks.
