Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to HCM.
Thank you for your query.
I have gone through the details you have provided.

Dark brown to black vomiting could suggest upper gastrointestinal bleed,which could be due to peptic ulcer or GERD ( gastric esophageal reflux disease).
I could suggest to take Nexium twice a day and visit the ER or your doctor immediately.

Hope this helps
Do get back if you have further queries

Dr Samir Patil
