Ibs: If you have ibs you need a colonoscopy to see if you might have crohns disease or ulcerative colitis. See a gastroenterologist asap.

Time to see your doc: Pku - short for phenylketonuria - is a serious condition that should be treated with a low-phenylalanine diet. If you are on diet, check with your nutritionist about the upset stomach. But if you see blood in your stools, you need to see your doctor as soon as possible - it may be nothing, or it could be serious - and if it is serious, the longer you wait, the bigger the problem. Call today.
