Does Acid reflux cause vomiting

[Amanda89]

Was just wondering if anyone who suffers from Acid Reflux has suffered vomiting or nausea with it? I've been having quite bad heartburn all day, and just had to run to the toilet to be sick which has never happened before.

It can, I don't think my nausea is related to my reflux but my dad throws up from his. I also take medication for mine and he is stubborn.

I take 40-60 mgs of prilosec a day and it quells the reflux some but I still have it...before my diagnosis I began having 1-2 nights a week where I would wake up and vomit in the middle of the night and then feel terrible the entire next day. As far as me or my GI could tell this was just a result of acid reflux. I had an endoscopy bc he suspected I may have ulcers or something but I ended up having no ulcers just a "slightly irritated stomach lining" which I didnt think sounded like a very medical description of an ailment but anyway...YES, from my experience GERD can most def cause nausea and vomitting.

Oh yes. You can get dueodenitis which can swell the duodenum and block food from passing. Throwing up, in me at least, relieves the pressure.
