Welcome at HCM
I am Dr XXXXXXX Sultan and I will be answering your query. I have gone through your query and history and being your physician I appreciate your health concerns....
Do you have diabetes ? It is not mentioned in history. Since vomiting do occur in patients with diabetes.
As far as your case is concerned , I didn't find anything abnormal in your history that points specifically to vomiting. The episodes which you have suffered from may be attributed to indigestion. You need a lifestyle modification with small frequent meals.
When is the last time you had undergone endoscopy.? If it is more than a year , then you should meet your Gastroentrologist so that you can be examined well.
If I am your attending physician I will get your ECG , RBS , renal functions tests , liver function tests along with fresh ultrasound scan of abdomen and pelvis.
Meanwhile stay calm and you may get help from Omeprazole for heart burn...
If you still have any query feel free to ask
Hope it helps
Regards

My endoscopy was two years ago and was ordered after a CT scan which the radiologist thought needed further tests. The original scan was ordered to see if there was a reason for UTIs I was getting. No reason was found, but the radiologist thought there were some abnormalities, which turned out to be an ulcer which has never bothered me. Also found were some evidence of a hiatal hernia which also ever has had any symptoms.
No need to worry about. only lifestyle modifications

I appreciate your follow up..
After reviewing your followup, I think you should go with it. It should not be a matter of concern for you if you are otherwise fit and healthy.
I urge you to seek Gastroentrologist help if vomiting become persistent and associated with pain and green colour. As far as physician followup is concerned , you can do it on your scheduled one. No need of scheduling it in emergency.
May you stay healthy
