I believe there is something wrong with your biliary tract. Could be the gall bladder.
I recommend : - a gastroenterologist consult - ultrasound of the abdomen. CT scan may necessary. - a study of the biliary tract may be necessary (Mrcp) to check for stones or any other lesions. -blood tests (complete blood count, liver and kidney function tests, lipid profile, blood sugar levels) -an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy to check for varices and bleeding ulcers.
Based on the results we can arrive at a diagnosis. To answer your queries : - black stools could be due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Liv 52 is probably not causing this - gall stones can cause pain like this. Please consider my recommendations and see a doctor for the above asap. Hope this helps. Wish you good health
