Hello everyone, i have had my pouch for 21 years and just the 24 hours I have been passing blood. More than normal, I did not get a chance to empty it before I left the house. Wondering if I held it to long. It between light and dark. Did eat ALOT of black berries before bed. Your thoughts?

I can't tell from your description how much blood you're losing, or the timing of these events. Assuming you're not losing an enormous amount you can monitor it to see if it clears up, persists, or worsens. If you want us to dig deeper, I'd need to know:
Do you usually bleed (or occasionally bleed), but smaller amounts?
Did "holding it too long" (or whatever you were trying to describe) happen before any bleeding?
Did your blackberry binge happen before any bleeding?
How many bloody BMs have you had? Can you estimate the amount (e.g. is the water pink or red?)? The description of this may depend on stool consistency.
I hope it just goes away...
I ate cherries and thought I was passing clots.
