Don't waste your time when you have any medical question but you must contact the doctor at once ..

Cystic fibrosis is serious, all I know about it from what I studied at school is that the lungs dont produce a protein so the they fill with mucus that needs to be cleaned out once in a while. Ive never heard anything about blood in the stool, it may be an irrelated disease. If it were my daughter id just take her to the hospital right away. I hope your daughter well. Take care

Having lived in the same home with someone that had CF, I would think you would be better off asking this question to a qualified person rather then asking in Yahoo Answer. Or you could even check out the CF website.

Call a dr, dear. If she doesn't have hemorroids, she may be bleeding from the gastrointestinal tract. My aunt had cystic fibrosis so I know it effects the digestion and intestines not just the lungs. Good luck.
