As I said in the votining thread, the wife was admitted to the hospital Monday night from the ER. I had taken her in because she had passed a couple of clots of blood early in the afternoon and was getting bright red blood in her stools.
Got her home this afternoon. All the blood and urine work ups in the ER were negative for the source of the bleeding. Dotto for a CT scan of her abdomen. They did a full scope procedure last night. They found and rermoved a couple of polyps in her intestines and dosumented some internal hemmorioids that we already knew she had. The source of the bleeding turned out to be a stomach ulcer.
I never talked to the dr that did the scope, so I don't know if anything was done to repair the ulcer or not. She was given a regular diet for breakfast and lunch to see how she tolerated regular food. She was discharged this afternoon with no dietary retrictions, so it looks like everything is good, or at least on the mend.
