red poo panic

Hi
Just that really, My poo seems to be a red/burgundy colour today. I've been three times this afternoon and I'm panicking.
I did have vegetable crisps (including beetroot ones) two days ago, Would this have this effect?

Beetroot def makes pee/poo reddish colour and can last for days.

I didnt have loads but I suppose it would do that. Always think the worse...Sad xx

You should get it checked out if you're that worried. I had quite a lot of fresh roasted beetroot recently and was amazed at the effect on pee and poo. I'm not sure if beetroot crisps would have the same effect or not tbh. But if you're having any other symptoms you should go to your gp.

I'm going to the doc tomorrow but sitting here worrying. I assume the crisps would do it as they are still beetroot. I dont have any other symptoms (not sure what to look for)
