Tell all the detail.: Describe all the details involved. Details such as time of day it occurs, is it related to certain foods, time relationship with relation to eating, associated symptoms such as nausea, fever, pain, headaches, all the prescription and OTC meds being taken; the color and consistency of what you are vomiting, any blood in it?
