Indigestion and gas formation
I had diarrhea 3 months back twice, 3,7 days and I took norflox Tz without probiotics from a doctor, since then I'm forming gas very frequently. From last 7 days without eating outside food my stool is coming out black and after passing stool my stomach makes "gad-gad" kind of sound. From last 5 days I'm taking Lactobacillus + pantocid twice +Isabgol from a doctor. My condition is not getting better. Is it coz of antibiotic overuse or my infection is still not cured completely? Shall I take some other antibiotic for this? What can I do? I'm suffering from depression and those meds are also not working coz of this. Help in detail

Black stool can be due to gastric ulcer or duodenal ulcers. Less likely related to pro biotics. U have to rule out reflux disease / ulcer / gall stones . Also need to see what medice u r taking routinely for depression.
Next Steps
