Trace Amounts of Blood When Throwing Up

I ate something heavy and I ate it fast. Needless to say, my stomach rejected it and I threw up.

I've noticed there are small traces of red, blood I'm assuming, in the exiting contents of my stomach.

Should I be alarmed?

I have an email out to my surgeon but I wanted some feedback from here as well. I'm 9 weeks postop

    Today is a better day. I'm not going to beat myself up about it. I'm soothing my abused stomach with warm decaf green tea and taking it easy. Thank you!

My doc got back to me very quickly. Since my vomiting is a result of my actions and the fact that I am, and always have been, a very violent puker that it is the force of me vomiting. Very possible. I have no symptoms of anything else. I need to slow the heck down.

Glad to hear everything is OK. Yep, slow the heck down. It's no fun getting sick.

Thank you. Love you too... I really appreciate that.

Never have vomited since surgery (knocking on wood as I type). But I did make myself really really sick eating a few French fries about 8 weeks post-op. Terrible horrible unbelievable nausea. Have tried fries only once after that in a smaller amount and got the same sick feeling. So, I am officially "done" with fries! Yuck! Thank you VSG!
