worried about digestion

I am concerned about my digestion. I happened to notice on a few seperate occasions where i had eaten something and 12 hours later ( i had gotten sick and threw up from a virus or something) the food was not digested and came back up?? Should i be worried or see a doctor or can that happen? i know they say it should only take a few hours for food to digest. sorry if this is too much info....
thanks

Thsi could be Gastroparesis.  It is another name for "slow stomach emptying"  Make an appointment with a Gastroenterologist.

If the food comes up in chunks still and you can still tell what it is, then you should see a doctor. Could this be from a crash diet or eleminating an entire food group?
