I have a GI bleed and NO ANSWERS - can someone please help?

Mindytreadway
Since August 2016, I have had 7 blood transfusions.  The first 2 were caused by bkeeding ulcers but then they were said to be healed.  Yet again, more GI bleeding.  I have had colonoscopies, egd's, cat scans, ultrasounds, stool specimens, rectal exams and the pill camera done.  Still no answers!  A total of 7 transfusions later, here I am...wondering what is happening to me!  I am very anemic and I take iron twice daily.  Any suggestions or ideas?
