A member asked:
I have gastritis. what should i do if my stool has "coffee grounds" in it? i'm still waiting on an endoscopy. is it something to worry about ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Before Endoscopy: Of course you should worry about this and so should your family doctor. You need to know if you have H. Pylori infection caused Peptic ulcer disease and if you are anemic. These are diagnosed easily by blood test.
