Is it normal? I have vaginal bleeding, but no uterus

Have you taken a hand mirror and looked to see if can tell exactly where blood is coming from? Do you have an external hemorrhoid that is bleeding?
I am not medical expert, but roux-en-y in 2018 would not cause red blood in lower GI.

Is your provider giving you any advice on what is bleeding and how to treat?

I do not have an external hemorrhoid. They are internal and prolapse. Everyone assumes it is from the GI tract, but I can feel it when I bleed, and it does not feel like it is flowing from the rectum area.

I have not thought about the mirror; thank you for the suggestion. I will have to get one. No one has given me any solutions or instructions except to go to the emergency room if I get dizzy or feel faint. I've gone to the emergency room before when I was bleeding heavily. All they did was a quick exam tell me I have blood in my urine, do a cursory pelvic exam and tell me it isn't coming from my vagina do a blood count and determine I don't need a blood transfusion and send me on my way.

If I were bleeding enough to feel it flowing, wouldn't you think I could feel it coming from my rectum? I can tell when I have bowel leakage that it is coming from my rectum.
