Hi, my late husband died of colon cancer and he pooped blood. He was an alcoholic, he ate 3 meals and worked hard. Pls get your partner to a doctor.
100% in agreement with LeftCoastChick. The bloating as big as you say, could signify liver damage. I just lost a friend to liver failure due to liver cancer and it aint pretty! Get him to the doctor, period.
Your partner is an alcoholic. In later stages of aloholism, his addiction will cause his liver to shut down as well issues in his whole digestive system. Bleeding from the bowels is extremely serious and common. He needs to go to the ER immediately. Many alcoholics, like my godfather, will drink until they rupture an organ in their body, sad but true. You need to go get help as well, you have been with him 31yrs and just suspected he has an issue. There is a group called Al-Anon, this is for folks of addicts who want to get healthy themselves, addiction affects everyone around the addict. It's worrisome with your partner as well taking meds and drinking. Get him help!
