Question hi, im a 17yo male, 5-8 150lbs....
the past 2 days i have had a stomach ache followed by dirraha... it happens about 1 or 2 times an hour... i have been trying to let it pass, but i just went to the bathroom right now and it was black... i just went a 2nd time and it was super black.
i looked it up on the internet and i am getting sort of scared.
what do you think it is?
ps. i had mono about 2-3 months ago, and have been having some type of tachycadia with my heart in the mornings when i wake up, idk if its related or not...
thx:)
Answer the tachy may be from dehydration from the diarrhea... if there is no fever.
The black stool is from the pepto bismol you took for the stomach ache/diarrhea. If however, there was no bismuth taken, it could be blood and should be looked at by your doctor, otherwise, go on clear liquids for a day and it should resolve.
