| My husband is an alcoholic and has been for over 20 yrs, although it has got progressively worse over the last 3 yrs. He has had bouts of being violently sick over the last few months, and of course blames it on the food that he eats. although all the family eat the same and are fine. he has started bleeding from his back passage what does this mean? |

| He's been an alcoholic for 20years and refuses to see that the alcohol is whats making him sick. I could really use someone to talk to who is going through the same thing. I have stuck by this man and dealt with his mood swings from the alcohol and have the bunt of his harrassing statements. I refuse to deal with his harrassment any longer. If I say anything he becomes more beligerent. Help |

well Sezp1972, I hope you and your husband have by now figured out what is wrong with him. I just stumbled upon your question and thought i'd add my 2 cents.
It could be quite serious. Is it a large amount of blood coming out when he bleeds? is it bright red, or dark brown or black?
chronic alcoholism, especially over a long period of time, is VERY VERY bad for the body, especially the parts that come in direct contact with the alcohol, and those that metabolize it (liver). I'm sure you (and your husband) know that already.
He probably has a severely irritated stomach & intestinal lining. But he could have ulcers in his intestines, he could have stomach or colon cancer. Or it may not be serious - he could just have hemmarhoids.
regardless, though, he must stop drinking or he will die either directly or indirectly from it sooner or later.
make sure he eats healthy, mild food. if he stops eating, and keeps drinking - the end is not far off. |
