yesterday morning i got this on my stool. no pain in bowel movement however the day before i had diarrhea with pain and nausea-vomiting sensation which i attributed to some infection probably from something i ate or a suspected ibs/lactose intolerance. the dark green-black stuff is undigested spinach.

should i be worried?

Hi MThomp,

Thank you for posting in Colon Cancer Connected. I'm sorry you're having these issues.

It looks like you're noticing these things now and they have not been something you've been having a history with. One place to look is the family history of similar type symptoms.

Did you indeed eat something different than normal in the past days that may be attributing to your "diarrhea with pain and nausea-vomiting sensation?" I would stay away from whatever you ate the past couple of days and see if the symptoms clear up. Nausea can definitely be caused by and adverse food reaction or virus occurrence. Is there any medical history that may be a contributing factor?

I would definitely say if this persists, go to the doctor and get it checked out. You may want to do that anyway just to gain some knowledge as to the cause and give you peace of mind.

We appreciate you sharing your situation with us and are searching for information and solutions. But do think about getting it checked out with your GP and hopefully there's a simple solution. Please share what you find out as that can be helpful to others posting here that may be dealing with a similar situation.
