Specializes in Colon and Rectal Surgery

It usually: Means that on three separate stool specimens, non visible blood was detected. This needs to be evaluated by a gastroenterologist or colon and rectal surgeon. Do not wait until you see blood. Early detection of the source can save much anxiety, worry and possibly your life. Take it seriously.
