Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Nausea, Dizziness, Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Bloating And Dark Colored Stool. What Could Be The Reason?
I thought I may of had the flu. I was nauseated, dizzy, had diarrhea, stomach pain and was very exhausted for about a 24 hr period. The only thing that seemed to help was pepto. It has been 3 days since I have taken any. But for the last 3 days I have felt bloated and I get full very fast. I also have very dark/black stool and it's very hard to have a bowel movement. Could this just be from the pepto still? I'm starting to get concerned that it may be something else.
HI Thank for asking to HCM It seems a viral infection the medicine which you are taking may be the cause of your hardening of stool stop taking that and start drinking lot of water have a hot drinks have bad rest, if it is malaise like symptoms then you can try acetaminophen tab otherwise no need to take this tab. too it will be alright within a week till then have good rest and no need to have different ideas everything is fine have nice day.
