Rbc hemoglobin 13.0. dr said its low. pooping blood daily with clots. feel weak. no pain in abdomin. fecal smear showed blood. didn't feel hemorrhoids?

Rectal bleeding.: Although a hemoglobin of 13 is only minimally low, it is never normal to have blood in the stool. It is imperative to have an evaluation to determine why you are having G.I. bleeding. Your gastroenterologist should schedule tests to determine the cause of the bleeding. Do not delay in getting this evaluated. It can be life-saving. Good luck.
