Hello and Welcome
I appreciate your concern
Black tarry stool signify melena and upper GI bleed. Greyish color change can be related to medication and diet. However, a better option would be to get a stool for ova and parasite done along with a routine examination to determine the consistency of the naked eye findings and a possible cause.
