Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My wife just pooped a "lot" of blood and she says her stomach hurts now. The pain isnt enough to consider an emergency. She is at work, so I dont have all the detailed details. Is this something that should require her leaving work immediately, or is this something that is going to take time to heal regardless?

Hello and welcome,
It is highly likely she has gastrointestinal bleeding. She should go to emergency department now. She needs emergent evaluation of the bleeding.
Please, feel free to ask me if there is anything else you need to know.
Thank you, Malik Amonov MD
