Is it part of having GERD to throw up all of the evening meal which includes from breakfast on about once or so a week......this does not include a feeling of nausea.......it comes on suddenly and happens in the middle of eating one at very end at evening mealtime only. No blood involved.....not on nexium for past five yrs.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have GERD cause sudden throwing up in between food intake . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are due to abnormal functioning of sphincter of esophagus . In this case lifestyle changes will be very important . I would suggest you to eat light and non spicy specially at night , eat at least one hour before going to bed , take light walk after eating and keep your head elevated while sleeping. Drink warm milk to neutralize acidity . Consult gastroenterologist for proper examination . Doctor may order ambulatory acidity test along with endoscopy and x-ray of upper digestive track . Doctor may prescribe H2 blockers , proton pump inhibitor .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
