Blood in BM at end of vanco course?
I'm on day 10 of Vancomycin (of 14 days), and sometimes I still see a fair amount of blood in my poop. I went three times so far today, and the third time was more bloody. Solid and more intact, but still bloody, and it still has the smell. The doctor said it will take some time for the irritation in my colon to heal up. It's just worrisome to see. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks.

Blood is concerning . It may be just hemmorrhoids or a fissure but you need to tell that to your doctor , or go to proctologist. If the stool is formed and solid it may not have anything to do with Cdiff.

Agree with Georgina. Seeing red blood in your stool is a reason to notify your dr and let him make a determination of how to proceed.
