Re: bowel changes

Passing green black stools and fresh clots sounds like you are bleeding from your bowel. A swollen spleen could cause a reduction in blood platelets and increase the tendency to bleed. Taken all together, if you have not seen a doctor recently, I would not wait until Thursday. Call the 'on call doctor' or go to casualty.
