Past history would cover you on all corners. Did the doc dictate any history? Unless she has significant OB/GYN pathology, which the doc would probably make note of, vaginal bleeding and "path" history don't go together. Hope that helped.

sounds like this is some weird wording for microscopic blood.

I've done thousands of endoscopy reports and GI consults, but I can't think why he'd say "affobiddy positive stool" instead of something about occult blood or microscopic blood.

MRI of the brain shows what looks to be an acute infarct on DWI on the right brainstem area, which were also changes seen on the T2 weighted - s/l anuses - suggesting that this is probably an infarct, which occurred 7-10 days ago.
