Dark Greasy Stools

2020-03-30 09:28:22
Since past few days I'm having dark greasy/mucusy stool.. it's somehow dark brownish and greasy. I feel slight nauseous as well sometimes. Also I reported earlier I have pain below the left back rib/muscle(not sure where exactly the pain is, its dull ache). I am on a course of Absolut 3G(once a day). Please help me, can this be because of the medication?

Your symptoms looks like Gastritis or could be because of colitis.  I don't know what is the composition of the medication you are taking. It could be because of Medication induced.
