I completed my endoscopy and the results were absolutely normal. There was no single issue noticed in the upper gastric part. The reason why I did this test is because I noticed melena in my stool along with abdomen pain but my results are all normal which is confusing. I still have abdomen pain slightly after I have a bowel movement.
Is this common or any insights on this appreciated. I will be going through an ultrasound to know more.

I would like to know if your diet includes anything giving rise to dark colored stools or are you on any iron tablets?
Since that is also a reason for the change in color
U need to get an ultrasound of the abdomen and if still symptoms persist a Contrast enhanced CT scan will be needed
Next Steps
USG of abdomen
