SUBJECT: taking the berry  smothie redi cat 2
MESSAGE: is it normal of the patients stool to be totally deep deep blood red? my husband [NAME] took 1 bottle of the berry smoothie flavor of this barium sulfate suspension before we found out today that the test was cancelled because his blood work showed his kidneys weren't as they should be. He was directed to drink lots of water to wash the barium sulfate from his body, and he's been to the bathroom twice and the toilet is filled with liquid blood red, deep red color when he's finished. Thank you [CONTACT]
