I have taken a colocare test that shows blood in my stool. now what is the possible reason and what are the next tests needed? i have been anemic for the last 3 months and can not get it to improve so the dr. had me do a colocare test.

Agree with Dr. F: Your history and lab result warrant evaluation by a GI specialist, and a colonoscopy. Wish you good health.
