Gastrointestinal bleeding: Upper GI bleeding originates in the first part of the GI tract—the esophagus, stomach, or duodenum (first part of the intestine). Bleeding can come from ingestion of caustic poisons or stomach cancer.
So basically...good news for all!

Well, there are a lot of relatively innocuous reasons for intestinal bleeding too.
But as Dorothy Parker once said when told somebody was ill, "I hope it's nothing trivial."

Bleeding can come from ingestion of caustic poisons or stomach cancer. I'll wager 15 quatloos on "ingestion of caustic poisons".
