Hi, thank you for posting.

I have gone through your query and I understand your concerns.

Green color shows that you have gallbladder disorders. While black color shows that you have stomach hemorrhage.
These symptoms are serious and you should consult your gatroenterologist as soon as possible and a complete blood count is necessary to rule out anemia.

To determine the diagnosis you need the following tests:
- Abdominal ultrasound.
- Fibrogastroendoscopy.
- Liver function test.
- Urine tests.

In the end of these tests your doctor will be able to determine the exact diagnosis and treatment.

However you should follow these guidelines:
1. Eliminate spicy foods, coffee, milk, alcoholic drinks and carbonated drinks.
2. Quit smoking(if you do smoke).

I hope I answered your query.
Please let me know if this answer is helpful.

All the best.
Dr. Behar.
