Is it possible for your stomach to create too much acid?!


Question: Is it possible for your stomach to create too much acid!?
About 3 times a week, I wake up with an extremely sour stomach!. It doesn't feel sore like it would with a flu, it just feels very acidic, but not in the same way as heartburn!. I often throw up when I am feeling like this and it is always pure stomach bile (and seems like a lot)!. After I get sick I feel completely fine!. This has been going on for about 5 or 6 months now and have even taken a pregnancy test (was negative) to see if it was morning sickness!. To me it feels as if my stomach produces too much acid and I throw up to rid my body of this excess!. I can not think of anything else because I have no other symptoms and after I throw up the stomach bile, I feel normal!. Thank you in advance!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
