For the past 15 minutes I've been coughing and throwing up Gatorade and these black flake things. I haven't eaten anything in hours.
Does anyone know what it is?

@mountaindewed I am not a medical expert but several sites mention similar symptoms.
Here is one https://my.clevelandclinic.org/healt...ground-vomitus It sounds like if this continues that seeking medical help or urgent care might be advisable. All the best, CANDC

Go to ER now. You are likely coughing blood. It’s a medical emergency. Go now. Let someone drive you or call 911

What did you eat before this happened and how long ago?
Some things take longer to digest than others, some foods just sit there for a whole day. If it looked like coffee grounds, it was probably old blood. Given how much you've been throwing up, might be some kind of esophageal tear (when I had my MW tear it looked like I straight up ate a coffee filter full of instant coffee and had it come right back up) or an ulcer. ER might just tell you to see a PCP to get referred to a gastro for an endo.

I had some tuna about 8 hours earlier. So maybe it was just tuna flakes? I've thrown up today and there wasn't any flake things. I see my GI doctor next week and I've been told to raise hell until I get an answer from him.

Idk what kinda tuna you're eating, but I've never had straight tuna come up looking black. Probably blood
