My brother had a complete colon and rectum removal with ilestomy about 20 years ago. He has not had any problems since then, but recently has had blood in the stomy bag. Since he has not seen a gastro in several years, he has to go as a new patient, which requires a delay of 7 weeks before he can be seen. His symptoms, to me, seem to require quicker attention. Is there any concern for a delay in seeing a doctor?
