A member asked:

Is it normal to have blood after a gastrocopy, and stomach biopsy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: By blood, i presume you mean the taste of blood, or blood in the stool? Whenever you have a biopsy there is a small, limited amount of bleeding, so it is always possible to have blood. However, it is usually not a problem the next day.
