Vomiting: It is not normal to vomit food you ate 9 hours ago. Normally, your stomach should be empty by 2 hours if not sooner. There can be a few reasons why your stomach did not empty normally. Viruses are common causes. However, the transit time can be affected for other reasons such as obstruction, inflammatory bowel disease, ibs, diabetes, neurological problems, but these are more chronic. See your doc.
