Abdominal Bleeding
Abdominal bleeding can be a sign of an enlarged heart. Bleeding can be either obvious or hidden. Blood may appear in vomit, with a red or dark brown color and the texture of coffee grounds. Abdominal bleeding may also show up as rectal bleeding in the stool or as black and tarry stools.
Less noticeable signs of abdominal bleeding include light-headedness, difficult breathing, fainting and chest or abdominal pain.3’Gastrointestinal Bleeding.’ Mayo Clinic, Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research, 15 Oct. 2020, www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gastrointestinal-bleeding/symptoms-causes/syc-20372729
