GI bleed: Black stool could be form bleeding form the stomach, iron supplement and sometimes food colors. Have it examined by physician. As you had abdominal pain, peptic ulcer dz with bleeding form the stomach sound like a most likely cause.

Nondiagnostic: These symptoms are nondiagnostic without a thorough history and physical examination by a physician. It is unusual to prescribe steroids for stomach pain and a rash and then get another antibiotic prescribed. Your physician who knows all your findings is best to advise you . I doubt that cancer is the problem,however. Further studies seem warranted.
