Throwing Up Complications
Posted: 07-21-05 23:46pm

Tonight I ate something and threw it up immediately, after having drunk some water. It came up really fast and some went up the wrong pipe, some out my nose and it feels like some went into my head. It hurts really bad and I can't help but wonder what could come of this. If I inhaled some food/acids from my stomach, isn't that dangerous? Please comment, let me know what you think. I am a bit worried about this. I am worried about what kind of complications this may entail.

Many complecations come with throwing up, but I dont think you need to worry too much about that one incident, problems happen after a long time. The acid is very bad, not just if you inhale it as you said, but it ruins your throat by waring it away and can reslut in cancer. Also purging alot can relsult in internal organs rupturing, teeth rot. Not a good thing, hey? I used to throw up alot too, and i've just resigned my self to the lesser or 2 evils (i think) and that is not eating, or not eating much at all. But I dont suggest you do that, unless you know for sure you will make your self sick after eating something. I dunno, I think you should probably get help. Talk to your doctor or something, ok? Xoxo
