Hello,
Black stool is a sign of hemorrhage from gastrointestinal tract and a cause of anemia. I suggest you to be seen by your doctor doctor because some blood tests are needed and if hemoglobin levels are below 7 you need hemotransfusions.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
