Hi, welcome to HCM, At times the stomach gets upset (you say you vomited after traveling) and the effect lasts for sometime. Then there is a trigger of some food that does not agree with us and it can present as gastric (stomach) symptoms, or occasionally only as headache. I think in your case that is the cause. If you are still having problems I would suggest taking Omeprazole 40 mg one dose. And if you again get a similar attack you can try this instead of Aspirin/Dolo and see if it works. Your diagnosis will be confirmed. Incidentally, aspirin for pain should be avoided as far as possible--regards
