Brief Answer:
Visit to a hospital where Gastroenterologist is available
Detailed Answer:
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist. I appreciate your concern. I will suggest you to any hospital where Gastroenterologist is available who will examine you and do endoscopy examination and may be colonoscopy. Because the blood in vomitus followed by blood in stool is an emergency as it may be from upper gastrointestinal tract only. So visit to your doctor for examination.I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Wish you a good health. If you have further query I will like to answer that too.

Hello Doctor,
Thank you for the answer. To be more specific I did not have any blood in stool. It was a yellowish loose motion. From yesterday it's back to normal state. And after last Saturday night(19th sep) I did not have any incidence of vomiting. Do you still feel I must consult the specialist?

Welcome back.
I am pleased to hear that you haven't passed any blood in stool. But if I had been your treating doctor, I will still insist you visit a Gastroenterologist and get endoscopy to see the cause of bleeding.
