Stools: I see you have a diagnosis of colon cancer. Have you notified your surgeon or gastroenterologist. Other possibilities include infectious, inflammatory bowel or irritable bowel.

You didn't give much information. Could you be pregnant? Are you sure it is rectal bleeding? Do you have diverticulosis? That can cause painless rectal bleeding and can be quite serious. Get to your doctor.
