Sorry but there is no substitute for professional diagnosis. You need to bring her now!

get her to the vet! vets are vets to make a living, but they also love animals, lots will work on payment with you, our practice will hold checks for clients if its an emergency
good luck!!

runny stools and blood can mean parasites..or serious internal injury, if there are large amounts of blood in her stool. A vet visit is the only way to save the life of your dragon. If you can't afford to treat her or even diagnose her condition, at least talk with the vet and see if they will arrange a payment plan with you.
