urgent!! please read black bms
« on: March 06, 2013, 11:36:28 AM »
Well everyone I have posted for two days I  have been sick so this morning I am having black stools and I am freaking out. I think it is from old blood from stomach ulcer. I got a call in to my doc and any input would be appreciated.

I was about to ask if you taken pepto or eaten Oreos, etc. I have read that Pepto can cause that so I bet that is it!

Thanks guys  for replying the docs said the same thing. I wouldn't have worried so bad but  my digestive system has been through a bad time and I have been in severe pain. But today I am feeling better. So Thank you

MOST anxiety happens at the subconscious level.  JUST because you don't feel consciously anxious or had a day or two of calm doesn't mean your mind & body are relaxed.  It can take months of reduced anxiety before a body goes back to a more non-reactive state.

LOL at Sixpack!  I remember the first time I took Pepto and my tongue turned black.  Didn't read the label, so I thought I was going to die or something! LOL

If only all of our health problems were so easily solved!

about 20 years ago my youngest sister calls me and says, very seriously,  "don't tell mom but, um, my tongue is black.  I don't know what is wrong with me.."   I said, "V, have you taken any pepto bismal?"     well, you guessed it, she had been.   LOL.  boy was she relieved.
