Mystery stomach issues now blood in stool

Hello MN Smile If you didn’t see my post last week, let me summarise. 4 weeks ago I ate 7 slices of dominos, had diarrhea and bad stomach cramps…cleared up then 2 weeks later I got them again after eating pizza hut (food was lukewarm and I think they’re the reason I’m sick).
So back to today, before going to the GP I had excruciating cramps etc and bad gas. Went to the GP (told that they can’t do anything until we get my blood results, had the test today). 10 minutes ago I went to the loo, stool was reddish brown colour with red blood bits in it, and I’m feeling lightheaded. Does anyone have any clue what’s going on?

Tbf I’ve only ever had one domino’s and, within an hour, I had horrendous cramps and diarrhoea. Never eaten another one. I put it down to the fact that it’s so greasy .
What bloods were they testing? Maybe with it being pizza both times are they testing for coeliac?

Been toilet again. Blood in it a bit and lots of yellowish mucus Sad

Did GP take a stool sample also? is the blood bright red or black and tarry?

Rivermonsters · 13/08/2021 22:28

@Elouera no she didn’t. Bright red stool rn but 2 days ago I had black tar-like stool.

Please call the GP back, please

@Givemebackmylilo will do. Couldn’t sleep at all last night and the nausea was getting worse

It sounds like it could be amoebic dysentery. But please call the doctor.

@MrsSchadenfreude I thought dysentery would is like liquid diarrhoea etc? Confused you can tell I’m not a medic 😂

As it’s now Saturday morning, ring 111. If necessary, they can arrange an OOH Gp to talk to you.

MrsSchadenfreude · 14/08/2021 06:28

It can be. Mine came back and was yellow mucus/froth and blood. It was quite a shock. Doctor said,very calmly, oh yes, the last lot of antibiotics don’t seem to have done the trick. Call 111 and see what they say.
