Back from mexico upper ab pain worse after food. black stools for 2 days, h. pylori!? but now normal stools for 2 days & feel fine. still see doctor?

Pepto bismol?: Did you take any pepto bismol. This can turn your stool black for a day or so. As far as the pain it sounds like a gallbladder attack but more info is needed. If pain returns. See your MD.
