Doxy - leaving the body...is this normal?

Do you mean, "exits?"

No, it is absolutely not normal. That is the sign of gastrointestinal bleeding. You need to see your doctor.

I had that from c. diff., but there are a number of other causes as well.

Yes, be concerned, sorry.

It took me awhile to figure out what you meant :)

yes, exits. haha

No, nothing else in my diet that I can think of.
Unless cherries can do it - I ate a huge bowl of them yesterday.

Yes, usually black means blood from the small intestine or the start of the large intestine.

I will see what I get tomorrow...maybe I'm freaking too soon.
If it's still black, I'll go to the Dr.

I'll google if cherries can do it.

I read cherries can do it. I guess all the red...gets turned to black.

Too soon to tell...hopefully by early afternoon I will know...hehehe

Everything appears to be fine. Must have been the cherries.

I don't know how to word this....when doxy "exists" the body...is it normal to be very dark, almost black?

sorry, but don't know if I should be concerned.

Yes ... You should be concerned.

You might be having a GI (Gastrointestinal Bleed) The Black stool could be your blood being digested with your food.
I have had this happen ... that's why I know.
Feldene ... a drug for Arthritis/lyme diseases made my stomach bleed.
I had to stop taking the drug.

I forgot. Pepto Bismol does it too, and beets make your stool look bright red!
