What Causes Grey Bowel Movement And Abdominal Pain?

I am a male 73 years old. I have been having gray bowl stool for two days, Prior to this I had a sharp pain on my right side(abdomen) for about two days and it went away,no other symptoms . I have been taken a cholesterol 20 mg daily for a number of years and my last blood test for this was about one year ago, was ok. Had a complete annual blood test in Feb and that was ok. Should I wait a few more days before seeing a doctor?
