Stomach pain

For the past 3 weeks I've been throwing up everything I eat. I eat and feel fine and then an hour or so later it comes right back up. There is no pain or anything it's just throwing up. Even after drinking water it does the same thing. I cant afford to go to a doctor unless I know it's something serious or untreatable at home

So I take it you aren't in the UK? 3 weeks is long enough to have constant bouts of sickness, it's pretty bad that whatever country you live in won't see you without paying, but I myself personally have had various stomach problems over the years, I've ignored it on a couple of occasions and nearly paid with my life, please don't ignore your stomach and if you have to pay make sure that you get thoroughly checked over, your body body needs nutrition and while your suffering with bouts of sickness I doubt you are getting enough nutrition into your system, certain parts of the stomach don't have any nerves and can't feel anything including pain, normally you get tell tale signs more so when you go to the toilet that the lower part off the bowel is affected, doesn't sound like appendicitis as normally you get a very intense pain, however we all have different pain thresholds, so if I was you I would attend a treatment centre or a doctor or medical room, or hospital, but if you are paying make sure that you get every test available, you sound that money could be a problem, but it is better to be checked over, and of course you'll be worried, but I'd rather pay and know everything is OK, good luck.

Don't forget it's your money and don't get fobbed off, a doctor can prescribe medication, but if there is something happening inside its more important finding out the source and getting the correct treatment, you don't want to go back and say that the tablets prescribed aren't working, and you are no further forward in getting this sorted, I had a thorough investigation with my stomach and I was lucky that the NHS picked up my problems, and I'm truly grateful for the life saving surgery, on two different occasions, it may be something and nothing that you are suffering with, but it's definitely to be safe than sorry, I hope that you will feel a little better soon, thanks.

When you say you can't afford to go to the doctor, do you mean you can't afford to get any medication he/she prescribes? Wherever you are in the world, there is free access to medical care and treatment, so if you you been constantly throwing up, get yourself off to see a doctor. You don't mention diaorrhea, which goes with food poisoning or pain in your stomach or heartburn, so it doesn't sound like a hiatus hernia or stomach ulcer, but if you are as bad as you say, it needs checking.

Hi this isn't normal and could be potentially serious so you need to get yourself off to a doctor asap. x
