Vomiting up to two times every two minutes continuously for four hours?!


Question: Vomiting up to two times every two minutes continuously for four hours!?
Hypothetical situation based on a previous experience:

What could it mean if I am vomiting quite literally every two minutes (I've counted) for four hours!? I've also been belching up a foul sulphuric-tasting burp for the past five hours, and had extremely watery diarrhea/steatorrhea at least once every five minutes for five hours!.

Anti-emetics are illegal in my state for over-the-counter use, or I would've used them!. Is it normal to vomit twice every two minutes continuously for four hours nonstop as a symptom of food poisoning!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
That's what it sounds like!.!.!.food poisoning!.
There's nothing in your belly so your burps will smell like bile also that's why you're having watery diarrhea!.
Drink lots of fluids to prevent dehydration!. At this point, mix half Gatorade and water (equal parts)!. When your stomach settles, start with a BRAT diet!. Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds awful! I would suggest some kind of poisoning for such a severe reaction, but I dont know if a viral infection like Norovirus could cause this too!. It is horrendous!
Perhaps in different people, reactions may vary, and I am guessing that although you kept trying, there wasnt much left to be sick with!? Provided you dont intake anything at all, it would have to stop eventually, but you would be extremely dehydrated!. If these episodes of illness are extreme but happen over a series of hours - say 24 - it may be a highly infectious virus like Norovirus!? Or could you tie this into something you might have eaten/drank!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

That is very possible!. I've never heard of someone throwing up every 2 minutes for 4 hours!. How do you have time to email this question!. If you are throwing up this much, you need to go to the hospital!. You could be dehydrated!. Dehydration can cause throwing up also!. Catch 22!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Maybe your gall bladder - that happened to me a month ago and I went to the ER and they admitted me because of dehydration!.!.!. they did an ultrasound and found stones!.!. The more serious problem right now for you is dehydration though - you should go to the ER, seriously!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have no idea what it is, but every symptom is screaming "GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM!!!" to me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
