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.
