Tami - it sounds like it could be Irritable Bowel Syndrome. I have it and I
experience the same thing - bloody stools, cramping, etc. I suggest taking
her to a gastroenterologist (stomach doctor). The tests are not pleasant but
it will help her in the long run.
When mine acts up, I get medicine from the doctor. I have also learned that
peppermint helps a lot too - don't know if she can eat that, but just some
info. Hope this helps!
