What Causes Dark Brown Vomit?
I just got done vomiting dark brown, black looking liquids after I took a drag of tobacco out of my glass water pipe. I ve been smoking tobacco for 3 years and I ve had this happen to me once before. Immediately after I exhaled I felt nauseas and light headed and my stomach automatically started turning. I rushed to the bathroom and began to vomit twice and it was all black and brown and very dark and chunky. What could this mean and what should I do? As I still feel sick to my stomach and get light headed when i stand up.
