I had something similar happen to me a few times. I had a varicose vein that would rupture 2 or 3 times a year and paint the entire room with arterial blood spray.

I had an ambulatory phlebectomy ablation performed in 8 sessions, spanning over a two month period. It was pretty brutal, but it helped.

I have pics and video if any of you sickos wanna see.

Ok, in a nutshell, stoma irritation while on blood thinners because i have had DVT in both legs before. It bled due to some irritation from something and instead of clotting and stopping, it filled my ostomy bag in a few minutes.
You can google stoma
My mom has pretty extensive diverticulitis and has bled to the point of passing out a couple of times now with trips to the ER looking like she'd lost all her blood. That hasn't happened in a few years and now she also has a stoma after colon cancer, so it's a real concern for sure, but so far so good.

Take care man!

Took em fishing. They were mostly the size of short earthworms.
Well, did they bite? You probably set a new catch record and would do it again, if it didn't hurt so much (as said the guy who launched himself over his trailer with a gasoline explosion while drunk).

Generally, when somebody wants to tell details of a health problem, they do so without prompting, and when they don't come forth with details, maybe they don't want to discuss in detail their health issues on a public forum with curious folk who really don't care and who watch train wreck videos for entertainment.
I totally get that. Perhaps the lines get blurry when someone starts a thread about said health condition? I’m not saying he shouldn’t, just that I can understand why it might lead to people inquiring further.

We aren't that polite.
