See doctor: Why aren't you eating or drinking? You are probably very dehydrated at this point and need urgent medical attention. Black tarry stool can be a sign of gastrointestinal bleed even if you see no bright red blood. Seek help immediately.

Go to ER ASAP: Unfortunately you may be very sick. These are all warning signs of a serious condition possibly involving your stomach and or kidneys. I would strongly advise you to visit your ER as soon as possible as you may have multiple organ systems that are being affected.

If tiny black specks throughout stool is blood would it turn red in water. Was able to get some of the specks on a piece of tissue and pressed on them with another wet tissue and they stayed black. Does it sound more likely to be from food?
