Scared the Sh*t Out of Myself Posted: 10-25-04 19:26pm
I recently threw up some of my food and
noticed bits of blood. And when I spit
it out, it was red. Has this happened to
anyone else and what does this mean or
what should I do? (other than stop
purging), I don't think i'll be doing that
again, but then again I say that all the
time. Any advice will be appreciated,
i'm really scared what this could mean.
Thanks.

Hey, well vomiting blood could mean a few
things such as torn tissue in the
esophagus or torn lining in the throat or
stomach. You have a good reason to be
scared and I think you should go see a
doc. Just to be sure.

Yes, this is one of the biggest reasons I
stopped purging... My doctor said my
esophagus was close to rupturing (or a
blood vessel in it), and if I didn't stop
i'd either die or if I was lucky i'd eat
thru a tube for the rest of my life. You
need to stop before it gets bad :-/ let us
know how its going

I never do it again.
