Not likely: More likely your bleeding is from the same reason you bled before.

Thank

Colonoscopy: Even though colonoscopy was "negative for cancer"in 2012 the bleeding needs to be evaluated again.Were you told what caused the bleeding in 2012? Please go back to your gastro-enterologist.Hope all turns out well.
