vomiting after meals

i am 26 yr old female. not pregnant. For the past 2 weeks i have been vomiting after meals. it usually happens 1/2 hour to 3 hours after eating. i have no pain or nausea otherwise. only nausea right before i vomit. my doctor has done blood work, HIDA scan on my gall bladder, and an endoscopy- he did a biopsy to test for Hpylori. the only thing that was found was a hiatial hurniea and inflammation in my stomach close to the small intestine. my gall bladder test came back normal. what could be causing all the vomiting?

Welcome to the gastroenterology community!  I would recommend asking for a gastric emptying scan to see if you have gastroparesis which is slow emptying of the stomach.  Good luck.
