Q: Nausea+black Tongue?

asked by: SandraS on July 28th, 2004

I've woken up with a black tongue twice in one week, I know what a hairy black tongue is, but i"m not taking any medication that would make me have a black tongue. Besides that, everytime I eat, I feel nauseated (but don't throw up). I've only been eating once a day because of this, i've lost 5 pounds already...I wanted to lose weight but not like this! Can anyone help?

If it were only the black tongue i'd suggest waiting abit to see if it goes but the weight loss is a worry - I suggest you see a dr!

Have you taken pepto bismal at all? That will cause a black tongue Sad
