What Does Green Stool Indicate?

My blood count today is 9.9. Normally I have a lot of dark black stools. Today they are green???? I have anemia due to blood loss. I have had all the scope test. Nothing found. Schedule for capsule endoscopy. Just wondering what the green stool could be.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If the green stool is a matter of concern then it could be due to less food intake, and it could be due to viral infection too.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
