It sounds a lot like you just have something wrong with your stomach. What is your food/liquid intake like? Do you eat a lot of junk food, greasy/fried food, spicy food, do you have a high alcohol intake, do you take a lot of pain killers?

It is also possible to be Gastritis. I got this after delivering my daughter, and had nausea/vomiting and a bad burning pain in my stomach, along with weight loss, lack of appetite, etc. Where is it located? Mine was centered in the middle of my stomach, directly under my ribs. Drinking can make this worse, as can certain foods. Do you normally ingest a lot? Seeing as you're underage, you shouldn't be having any form of alcohol anyways.

Does the vomiting have anything in it? Any form of texture? When I would vomit, it would either be green/yellow or black with coffee ground texture. An Endoscopy would be able to check out the lining of your stomach, throat and duodenum. They're likely take some biopsies to see if there are any bacteria causing it, and what the damage is.

Hi, I agree it sounds like you have ulcers that have been agitated and bled. This is something you can work on with the dr and fix. Good luck try to relax

Alcohol can made acid reflux wrose and the acid can cause ulcers. Also if you take ibprophen often or eat spicy foods it can cause acid issues. When the ulcers bleed it can cause bloody vomit...or vomit that looks like coffee grounds. They will probably do a upper GI scope. THis is where they put a little camera down your esophagus to look at it and your stomach. They may take tissue samples, but this will help them better understand what they're dealing with. THey will probably reccomend you take an acid reducer such as Nexium. You may have to stop drinking alcohol for a while until you are better. Good luck!
