Carbimazole and spike in ALT and alkaline phosphatase

Hi , I wonder if anyone has had a similar experience .
I was diagnosed with GD in April this year , started 5mg of Carbimazole once a day .. this was then reduced to every other day .
Recently on the days I take the med I get acute upper abdominal pain when I eat , to the point where I can’t move . Then 2 days of black stools .
Endocrinologist thinks it’s unlikely a reaction to Carbimazole but seems to much of a coincidence as on the days I don’t take the meds I feel great . I’m lucky that I’m relatively asymptomatic with GD
They are suggesting propranolol 3 x day plus colestyromine 2x day .
I would be so grateful for any advice .
