Question : In May, I ate a meal and became dizzy within 30-40 minutes, then became nauseated, then threw up until all that I had eaten was gone, after throwing up subsided, dizziness went away and by the next day I was fine.
Same thing happened in XXXXXXX August and then this last Friday. This last time I did not feel better by next day.
Nausea had subsided, but when I drank a milk shake today, I had diarrhea which has not yet subsided. Could this be gallbladder disease or something else?

Brief Answer:
Sounds like gastritis

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you. The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a possible severe gastritis.
When you rat you have problems. When you vomit , the acid is drained and you feel better.
This can be confirmed by a endoscopy.
Till then, try taking Tablet Pantoprazole 40 mg twice a day before meals.
Avoid spicy food and alcohol.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
