Sorry, I know it's yuck. Been very poorly and now puking bright green sick. Does anyone know what this is? Am I turning into an alien? Any help would be appreciated.

((((Pegs))))

I just did a quick google for you and found this on the NHS website.

Your vomit is green. In this case you are probably bringing up bile, a fluid the digestive system uses to digest foods. This suggests you may have a blockage in your bowel (see below).
There is blood in your vomit or what looks like coffee granules. This is a sign of a peptic ulcer.
You also have severe stomach pain.

Maybe call NHS direct and ask them. I hope that you feel better soon

Oh thanks Tink!

Isn't that bile from your gall bladder? Have you been eating fatty foods that haven't been getting digested? Having pains, feeling very poorly? You can die from a messed up gall bladder - maybe not right away, idk - I would get it looked at by a Dr. We need our pegs.

I hope that I haven't scared you Pegs I feel bad now.
Sorry pegs please phone your surgery

I have had fever and chills over the last few days and vomiting for 2 days, I guess there isn't anything left in my stomach. It's probably the winter bug or the damn turkey that the dogs pinched out of the fridge.

No, you are right. I googled after you and it is bile. I thought bile was yellow, not green.

yep, bile Sounds exactly like the flu that's going around.
I hope you are feeling much better soon, pegs!
Sending many if okay

(((hugs pegs))))) hope you feel better soon, get yourself checked out as green usually means infection which need antibiotics x

Bile can mean other things other than a blocked bowel such as food poisoning, virus, parasite, lots of things and all treatable. I would definitely consider seriously going to the doctor, especially if vomiting more than 24 hrs.

The concern is of dehydration more than anything which can be really harmful if you cannot keep any liquids down, let alone foods. Popsicles and ice chips can help meanwhile to try to get some hydration. Please see someone and I do hope you feel better real soon!!

Thanks everyone, I'm a lot better now, still not quite right but better. I believe it was food poisoning as my lovely dogs had managed to open the fridge and helped themselves to the turkey!
