Welcome to Sick Enough, the podcast about hospital doctors, hospital issues, and the health conditions we commonly encounter.
This episode is all about bleeding in the GI tract, which doctors call (shocker) a GI Bleed. In this episode we talk about the difference between upper and lower GI bleeds. We talk about the causes of GI bleeds. We also talk about what your doctor will do to treat it, and what you can expect if you're hospitalized for a GI bleed.
