Red blood is generally due to bleeding at the end of the digestive track often due to hemorrhoids. It should be checked though to make sure that it is not something more serious. The saliva could be a reflux symptom. After reading about those you may want to make a list of the symptoms you are having so that you can take a full list to your doctor. This will allow your doctor to be able to make an evaluation of your symptoms more easily.
