I threw up blood last night

a quarter? like the coin? hmmm...yeah, you should better see a doctor. i mean, you may not like what you will find out but at least you will find out soon what is wrong with you and so that it can be helped. so many people go to the doctor when there is not much to be done anymore. so i do hope that you go to a specialist... i am suspecting just acid reflux...but i am not sure about the bleeding...some abdominal bleeding is caused by aneurysm, but it could be anything. just please go see the doctor, even for the sake of your kids.

It probably isn't that big of a deal. you can tell alot also by the color of red the blood was. I had that once and I never went to the doctors and well I have never had it since. So I can't tell you what I had but the amount was larger than a quarter. I think that was 15 years ago, so don't worry till you talk to a doctor.

This sounds too serious to wait until Monday. Call your doctor and get him/her to meet you at the hospital.I hope everything will be okay. Talk to you later.

I haven't had these experiences, but I wanted to tell you that I will be praying for you that everything will be okay and that it won't be cancer. You might just have an ulcer, which can be treated. I'm sorry that you are going through this. Just be strong and have faith that everything will be alright. God bless. make sure to keep us updated on how the appointment went.

Sweetheart, you probably have GERD, gastro-esophogeal reflux disease. Feeling full after small meals, heartburn, nausea, are all symptoms of it. Do you throw up a lot? I used to, every day of my freakin life, till I was finally diagnosed with GERD and something called Barrett's Esophogus. There are meds now that will stop the progression right in its tracks, Cyntrow. You're going to have to get an endoscopy though. It's not bad at all - they knock you out, and put a camera down your throat into your esophogus and stomach and that way, they can see if you have an ulcer or whatever, and you probably do have an ulcer, since you threw up that bit of blood. Don't be too scared, it's most likely NOT cancer, just gerd and/or an ulcer, darlin, and that can be taken care of with meds. And one of the meds they use for that, Protonix, has a rebate program, where they'll rebate up to $30.00 of the price you pay for it. I'm not sure where insurance comes into all of that though. But there are programs to get your meds at little or no cost and you can check into those - your doctor and/or pharmacist should be able to help you with that. So get your butt to the clinic or wherever you go and get this thing checked out so you can put your mind at ease and get some relief from your misery - 10 years is a long time to suffer. And please, be sure to let us know what happened, ok? I'm going to be thinking about you, so make sure you keep me informed - please.

I think after 10 years of this I would have gone alot sooner to get it diagnosed. Hopefully you haven't waited so long that there isn't a fix now for this problem. Always go to the doctor right away, because these types of things can get helped. But the longer you wait the worse it is.

Cyntrow, Did you see your Dr? Are you ok? I pray you are! I've been thinking about you.

Hi cyntrow, It could be from your esophocus (sp). But to be on the safe side, I would see the Dr. Please make an appt with your Dr, ok? It's always better to be safe! Hope you feel better really soon!

I've known people who have had similar symptoms and it's turned out that they had an ulcer. I understand you're scared and of course, everyone thinks about cancer but I honestly don't think you should worry too much about that, Hon. Just get your butt to the doctor ASAP and find out. It's probably an ulcer and you'll have to watch what you eat for awhile but you'll be fine. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers in the meantime. Annie

I have not have any experience like this before so I can't give much help. Better go to the doctor at once and also try searching at the internet for any similar symptoms. It helps to have some information on what you are dealing with. Please keep us update on your status and we will be praying for you.

mmmmmmm sounds like you have an active ulcer!!! get a doc to see to that asap.

Yes, please do. I hope that you will be okay. I know you desire to find out what is going on to cause this.

Not really but i think it's a very serious case you got there throwing up blood means there must be something that causes blood flow to get in digestive tracks cause vomiting has to do with intense muscle tension in your abdomen and the nearest major organ could be your digestive system or i think it's more of an eating disorder do you throw up what you eat sometimes?

If you have had severe heartburn for a while you could have ulcers in your esophogus which is what could cause the bleeding. Make sure you tell the Dr about he heartburn too. In any case they should give you some medicine to clear up the heartburn. Don't let them give you any cheesy med either like prilosec. Nexium is much better and you can take it 2x a day at 40 mg each dose. Good luck and let us know what happens. Will be thinking of you on Monday. I had the same thing and it was ulcers but I was worried like you are now. However if it is ulcers in your esophogus which is caused by severe continuous heartburn that in itself can cause a condition known as Barretts esophogus and that is cancer . It will be okay
