What Could It Be If Having Lump In Throat, Passing Black Stools After Having Diarrhoea, Vomiting?

I'm a 25 year old male. Yesterday I woke up at 5am with what I assumed was really bad heart burn. I took some pepto bismol and threw up about thirty minutes later (quite a bit). Then I was on and off the toilet for 3hours with stools that were very watery. All day after that it felt like I had a lump in my throat or like I could throw up at any moment but I didn't. Today my stool has been black and not solid( I've gone twice). I'm not sure if it could be the pepto from yesterday or if anything else is wrong

Hi,Welcome to Health care magic forum.
you woke up with heart burn, and had a vomiting, and then followed by loose motions through out the day. Next day your stool is black.
It appears to be due to the food poisoning,and due to continuous loose motions, there is oozing of the blood,into the intestine,which caused the black stool.
I advise you to consult a gastro enterologist for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms infusion of intravenous fluids,styptochrome injections till the clor of the stools become watery. loperamide,to controle stools, omeprazole, and domperidone.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
