Occasionally i get crippling abdominal pain that lasts for 1-5 minutes. it feels to be above my uterus. what follows is bright red blood in stool.ibs?

IBS does not bleed: Irritable bowel syndrome is basically just spasms of the intestine. When there's blood involved there's likely another etiology. Would recommend seeing your physician to consider a colonoscopy to determine the source of blood.
