Our 13 year old son started having bright red rectal bleeding and mucous with his bowel movements along with stomach pain near his belly button approx. 4 weeks ago. His stools have mainly been normal with a few episodes of very loose stools, mainly when he complains of the stomach pains. The stomach pains come and go, isn't a constant pain. His stool samples were tested for bacteria and came back negative. So its not what the doctor initially suspected at first, salmonella. We are now in the process of collecting 4 more stool samples along with blood work. Has anyone else had a child with these health problems or does anyone have any advice as to what it might possible be?
Thanks for any and all help!
