A member asked:

My husband has rectal bleeding,stomach pain,sleeping a lot and an enlarged prostrate.he has had a full range of blood tests.very worried wife.thanks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Gastroenterologist: I don't think that blood tests alone would shed light on the cause of his symptoms. Rectal bleeding must be investigated to look for hemorrhoids, anal fissure, inflammatory bowel disease, diverticulosis of the colon or the presence of a tumor. I recommend that he be evaluated by a gastroenterologist and colonoscopy may be advised.
