Frequent Blood in Stool - Low Iron

Hey Guys!

It's been a while and hope everyone is well!

I get iron infusions about every 6 months and it seems to work fairly well.  However, I had to go back for a second round of iron infusions this summer because my iron was still low.  The second round was given to me 7/11.   

I had my iron checked yesterday and the doctor told me my iron was still low, which concerns me.  I assume it's due to the frequency of blood in my stool I have been having over the past several months and I am depleting more iron than usual.

What should I do?  I have been drinking shots of turmeric and ginger to try to control inflammation.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sam
