Hello @dede20, Welcome to Connect. I know that has to be alarming for you. Rectal bleeding can be serious and it's something you should seek medical attention for answers. The Mayo Clinic Symptom Checker lists some possible causes based on specifics. It also suggests when to seek medical attention. Here's the link to the checker:

Have you contacted your doctor about your symptoms and rectal bleeding?
