I've been under a fair amount of stress at my new job, and I've been eating out a bit more than usual this week. I started to feel very full, but I ignored it. Now, my stomach hurts when I put just a little food on it, and I've been throwing up most of the day. I feel awful. I have no idea what this is. I tried taking a laxative, but I threw it up, too.

Does anyone have any idea what this might be?

You might have an ulcer. Why ask us? Go to an urgent care and get some help.

Gastroparesis maybe?
Gastroparesis Overview: Causes & Symptoms

I've read your teaching threads and wanted to add that this seems to have been associated with autism as well. https://www.google.com/#safe=off&q=gastroparesis+autism

Could be nothing serious and not this, but either way seems worth getting it looked into quickly IMO, if you haven't already.

It could be that, but it only seems to surface when I eat a lot over a short period of time. The big meal just doesn't go anywhere. I don't get sick off of eating it or anything, but later I might eat something else and throw up whatever I ate and part of the meal I finished previously.

It's been a few days. I've had lots of gas, bloating, and general discomfort when I eat and drink.

You need to go and see a Gastroenterologist.

I agree. I guess I'll wait until I feel like I can afford health insurance that will cover it. I did recently get a new job that pays way better than my old one, so maybe I can afford to sign up for that health insurance the government used to require? I used to be exempt from getting it, but it might help me now.

Never mind. I tried to enroll, and it's closed for this year.

The government STILL requires it. Obamacare. Universal Health Care. Everyone is required to have health coverage. If you do not, you pay a fine.

Have you tried metamucil? That can solve a factor of digestive issues if used regularly.
