Im pregnant and i'm on heparin due to a blood clotting disorder and i had a stool that was brown with black chunks inside, that smear black?

Testing: If you are suspicious that there was blood in your stool or that your stool had an unusual appearance schedule a visit for your doctor to do an exam. There is an office test called a Heme occult where they can evaluate you for rectal bleeding.
