Throwing up when I brush my teeth
Posted: 04-17-08 20:35pm

Every morning when I am brushing my teeth I throw up. This has been happening for the last 5 months. I do have 3-5 beers a night, but not drinking to drunkiness. I have no idea if this is physical or mental. I have diarehea on a regular basis since I was in my early teens. My brother has Chrones disease, and I know that that is not supposed to be hereditary. There are so many factors that couuld point to different directions. I use smokeless tobacco, and have for many years. I just changed jobs 6 months ago and my boss & job are rediculously stressfull. I work 10-14 hours a day. I haven't been to the doctor in about 4 years, but just applied for life insurance and everything came back ok. Let me know what you think, or if you need some questions answered.

Hi

When you apply for life insurance the check routine blood and urine. I think you should see your doctor let him/her know what is going with you and that your brother has Crohn's. Some say it is inherited others disagree. I know of a family (parents and siblings) that has both Crohn's and Ulcerative Colitis. They are now finding out other family members have suffered with one or the other not realizing this is what they have.
No one wants to go for a colonoscopy but at some point we all should be checked.

I'm not saying this is what you have as you have also been under stress with work.
This may sound dumb but have you switched toothpastes? Maybe the taste is making you sick.

The point you made about diarrhea makes me wonder though if there is something going on. Having diarrhea on a regular basis concerns me.
Do you have food allergies? Lactose intolerant,wheat, etc..
It's difficult to say exactly what is.
Please follow up with a doctor and keep us posted.
