I just noticed there was blood in my feces( i try not to look but I did) and there is a nawing feeling in my tummy like the lining in burning away between my belly button and lower. I am not pregnant and my PAP came back clear. What could the problem be( and yes I know I need to see a DR.) and what kind of doctor should I see to deal with this?

I'm assuming you have not seen a doctor for the vomiting and vomiting blood. You need to be seen by a doctor now. Don't wait for a specialist because the symptoms you are describing can be from very serious problems. Gastrointestinal bleeding is NOT ok.
After you have been seen for what is going on right now, you might be told to follow up with a gastroenterologist. But if blood is coming out both ends, you need to be assessed now to be sure you are not in any immediate danger. Ok? Please, I know it's a pain to go to the ER, but you shouldn't ignore this.

You probably have a stomach ulcer. That can cause bleeding in your feces. This is kind of nasty but is your feces kind of tarry? Got that play-doh consistancy? Than would be a stomach ulcer. You need to see your DR. If you start getting too weak and can't handle the pain you might want to go to the ER. Good Luck.

Gastroenterologist.
Sounds like a bleeding ulcer. If the blood in the feces is not dark brown (indicating cancer) good, if its fresh (red) even better.
It could also be bleeding in the lower colon from a polyp, diverticultitus, etc.
But GET TO A DOCTOR, SOONER THAN LATER.

Pretty sure you need to get to the Dr. ASAP. Visit webmd.com for some quick answers. Blood in the stool is not a good sign. Go see the type of doctor who deals with internal medicine.

sounds like an ulcer, some ulcers are bacterial. and are easily treated by a two or three week course of antibiotics. Go see Your octor and you should be referred to a gastroenterologist( gut specialist) pukin up blood and shittin blood are not good signs.

See a gastroenterologist to find out if you have ulcers, colitis, crohn's, or some other problem. Make an appointment ASAP as you can become seriously anemic or get other complications.

go to your nearest ER like yesterday...
vomitting blood and blood with your bowl movements is something that needs to be checked out ....
In the ER they will direct you appropriately to which ever specialist that can best take care of the problem
