Brief Answer:
Go to ER.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Throwing up continuously and dizziness may be related to viral infections of the gastrointestinal tract, vertigo, so, a medical evaluation is necessary first.
Throwing up also may cause fluids and electrolytes imbalance.
Treatment with antiemetic drugs ( metoclopramide ), intravenous fluids and omeprazole may be necessary.
If dizziness persists , use of betahistine also may be necessary.
For these two reasons, an evaluation at your nearest ER is necessary.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Greetings.
