Blood and mucus in stool and sometimes diarrhea along with off & on abdominal pain for nearly 6 months or so could be due to inflammatory bowel disease like ulcerative colitis.
Fecal lactoferrin and calprotectin can be measured as the first-line investigation before colonoscopy.

What Causes Stomach Pain And Blood In Stool?
Hi, Blood and mucus in stool and sometimes diarrhea along with off & on abdominal pain for nearly 6 months or so could be due to inflammatory bowel disease like ulcerative colitis. Fecal lactoferrin and calprotectin can be measured as the first-line investigation before colonoscopy. You might be anemic also causing lightheadedness. Do complete blood count (CBC). Once the diagnosis is established treatment will follow. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Tushar Kanti Biswas, Internal Medicine Specialist
