If : If a patient is vomiting blood and blood in the stool, it can be from several causes. A bleeding ulcer can cause vomiting blood and blood in the stool. If a patient is bleeding and feels weak, it may be from anemia. If a patient has "pockets" on the colon, it may be that the patient has diverticulosis, and bleeding from the diverticuli can occur. If a patient is having blood in their vomit and stool, they must be assessed immediately by a physician.

Very worrisome: These symptoms are very worrisome and need to be evaluated as soon as possible by a physician. Bleeding should always, always be evaluated.
